Kiev hit: 2,000 tons of Russian munitions reduced to ashes

The Ukrainian military said on Saturday it had shelled two weapons depots in the Tikhoretsk district of the Krasnodar region and the village of Oktyabrsky in the Tver region, near Moscow.

The Tikhoretsk depot is "one of the three largest ammunition storage centers" in Russia and houses one of the "key arsenals of the logistics system" of the Kremlin's troops, according to the statement.

According to the Ukrainian military, at least 2,000 tons of ammunition, some of which came from North Korea, were stored there. Footage posted on social media, which could not be verified, shows large explosions, detonations and large clouds of smoke.
