Explosions shook Russian city of Taganrog in Rostov Oblast, near the site where two military aircraft were hit earlier, Astra Telegram channel reported on Nov. 28.

Local residents again heard blasts in the area of the city. In the published footage, one of the explosions can be seen; Astra estimates it occurred roughly 1.3 kilometers from the Taganrog-South military airfield — the site where two Russian aircraft were previously attacked.

Astra’s geolocation of the video indicates it was filmed from Polyakovskoye Highway.

By their calculations, the distance from the filming location to the area of the airfield where the earlier strikes took place is about 1.35 kilometers.

Russian social media channels reported that residents of Saratov also heard explosions.

Details of the incident have not yet been clarified, but local social networks are filling with reports of loud blasts in the city.
