As reported by the Reuters agency citing sources of the Russian administration in the region, at least four explosions were heard from the area where the Belbek military airport is located, north of Sevastopol.

New explosions rocked Crimea tonight, the Ukrainian peninsula annexed in 2014 by Russia.

As reported by the Reuters agency citing sources of the Russian administration in the region, at least four explosions were heard from the area where the Belbek military airport is located, north of Sevastopol.

It is recalled that Ukraine had threatened yesterday Wednesday to demolish the Kerch bridge, which Moscow built to connect Russia with the Crimean peninsula, where in recent days there have been several explosions at Russian military bases.

Earlier today, two Russian villages near the border with Ukraine were evacuated after a fire broke out at an ammunition depot.

“An ammunition depot caught fire near the village of Timonovo” (which is less than 50 kilometers from the Ukrainian border) in Belgorod province, regional governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said.

There were no casualties, but for precautionary reasons the residents of Timonovo and the neighboring village of Soloti were “moved to a safe distance”, according to Gladkov, who added that the causes of the fire are being investigated.
