“All the inhabitants of Barsovo are evacuated to schools no.said the local authorities, quoted by the official press agency Tass, who also announced the evacuation of the inhabitants of Mirnoe.
The governor of the Vladimir region, Aleksandr Avdeiev, wrote on Telegram that “Responsible services work on the spot.” And the details about what happened will be broadcast later, writes Agerpres.
The Russian manager has threatened journalists and locals with stinging fines for possible information about an emergency situation “Before receiving verified official data“According to The Moscow Times.
According to Russian Telegram channels, at least seven localities in the area, where emergency state has already been declared locally.
The explosion occurred at an important military arsenal of the Ministry of Defense in the Kirjaci district of the Vladimir region, according to the local press.
In June 2022, an explosion of some ammunition to this arsenal caused the death of four people, without the incident forcing the evacuation of the local population.
According to The Moscow Times, it seems that the ammunition exploded at the 51st Arsenal of the Main Directorate of Rockets and Artillery (GRAU, Military Unit 11785).
“A huge ammunition deposit exploded – the 51st Arsenal Grau in the Vladimir region. The local authorities started the evacuation. It is not yet clear whether a drone attack or if the explosion occurred from the inside.”said military analyst Ian Matveiev, quoted by the mentioned publication. Locals say they saw four drones in the area, he says.
The obusions continue to explode, and a thick column of smoke can be observed above the place of deflagration. The Ukrainian average Exilenova also reported on the explosion produced at the 51st Arsenal of the Russian Army, which is part of “The military logistics of the Russian Federation “. According to this average, here was brought “military material” from Belarus.
The respective warehouse is about 530 km from the border with Ukraine and is a difficult target for Ukrainian armed forces due to the density of Russian anti -aircraft defense systems, notes the Ukrainian Portal Defense Express.
According to a channel “Archangel Mihail” of Russian military bloggers, the cause of the incident would be “detonation of some howitzes during their manipulation. ”
