After a series of four explosions at an ammunition depot near Staraya Nelidovka, in Russia’s Belgorod oblast, the facility is on fire, regional governor Vyacheslav Gudkov said in a Telegram post on April 27.
“Just spoke with the head of the Golovino village, Denis Zolotukhin; It appears that an ammo depot is on fire near Staraya Nelidovka,” said Gudkov.
According to the governor, the incident has no civilian casualties and didn’t damage any residential buildings.
A video of what appears to be the fire in question has emerged online.
Earlier, Russian media reported a series of explosions at another ammunition stockpile in Irmino, near Luhansk, which is under Russian occupation since 2014.
