“At night, Tikhoretsky District was subjected to a terrorist attack by the Kyiv regime. Two drones were suppressed by air defense and electronic warfare forces. The falling debris of one of them caused a fire that spread to explosive objects. Detonation began. Now, for safety reasons, residents of the village located near the fire site are being temporarily evacuated to nearby populated areas. A temporary accommodation point has been set up in Tikhoretsk. Fire brigades and special services are working at the scene. On my instructions, the head of the district, Anatoly Perepelin, is at the scene, reporting on the situation. According to preliminary information, there are no casualties among the residents of the district as a result of the emergency.”

Honestly, if your air defense just results in falling debris that’s as dangerous as an undamaged drone, why even bother?

Hahaha – “terrorist regime” 🤣. Did he look in the mirror?
And the drones are always “intercepted” – those Ukrainians are so inventive that even remains of their drones are fully effective on their targets 😹

Sing it with me, now
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust (yeah)
Another glorious Mordor sunrise over the Tikhoretsk Munitions Storage Facility. As of April, it appeared to be at about 55% capacity. Today, not so much.

Damn. Can we get Disney and/or John Williams to do an over-the-top fireworks musical sequence to accompany these??

Ahh yeah more drone debris falling near a ruZZian who is smoking near something flammable has caused him to drop his cigarette into the explodey thing and explodey things happened.
At least that’s how the copium factories in RuZZia will sell it.

From Wikipedia: “After the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the United States announced in October 2023 that large quantities of North Korean ammunition were being transported by rail to an ammunition depot in Tikhoretsk.”
There’s also an airbase and a ginormous oil depot in that town.

It’s almost as if Russia designs their explosives to look pretty when Ukraine just blows them up.

Saw an airport with quite a few fighters or bombers there on Google. Wonder if they were there at time of falling debris.

Well it’s a refreshing change from yet another “smoking incident”, although ironically, that place really did get smoked….

all drones and missiles were shot down, as is custom and tradition
Seems that most ammunition is stored in shipping containers in revetments. This would make the unarmored containers easy to destroy, but the revetments should contain the explosions, especially if there were only 2 drones as Russia claims. I look forward to satellite imagery.
