On the night of September 18, drones attacked the composition of ammunition in the city of Tropets of the Tver region of Russia. This was reported by the head of the Center for Anti -misinformation Andriy Kovalenko. In the warehouse, the Russians kept five types of rockets, including rockets to the Grad Grad Reactive System, S-300 and 400 anti-aircraft missile complexes, and ballistic missiles to the Iskander complex. In addition, the accumulation of stocks of North Korean missiles KN-23 began.
Destruction of strategic stock
According to Kovalenko, it was one of the important warehouses of the Russian army, which played a key role in providing the arsenal of the military on the front line. The lesion of such an object is a significant success of the Ukrainian forces in the fight against the Russian military machine.
The local authorities, as always, did not recognize the extent of the damage, claiming that "the fire broke out through the fragments of the UAV." However, eyewitness testimony and a significant fire, accompanied by detonation, indicate that the warehouse was amazed.
Evacuation of residents
Due to the fire and the danger of ammunition detonation, the governor of Tver region, Igor Rudnya, ordered the population to be partially evacuated. Residents of the city of Toropets are urgently moved to the neighboring city of Western Dvina.
Rise in blows in
This case is another blow to drones on Russian objects. After the start of a full -scale war, drones repeatedly attacked military warehouses, aerodromes and infrastructure facilities in the Russian Federation. Although the Russian authorities do not recognize losses, these blows cause significant losses and weaken the opportunities of the Russian army to continue aggression against Ukraine.
