A marvelous explosion of a Russian ammunition depot in Toropets, Tver region, north-west from Moscow, after a Ukrainian drone has hit it last night.
More video from this morning in Russian #Tver region where an ammunition depot has been demilitarized by a Ukrainian drone.
International seismic stations have recorded up to 15 massive explosions equivalent to earthquakes of 2.0 to 3.2 magnitude, likely related to secondary explosions in a Russian Toropets ammunition depot in Tver region, hit last night by a Ukrainian drone.
The ammo depot in Toropets was constructed in 2015-18 and costed at least 3,6 billion rubles. It was opened by Dmitry Bulgakov, Russia's deputy minister of defense, who claimed that the depot is of a "world class level" and can protect stored missiles even from a nuclear strike.
You ask, why Russia constructed one of its largest and most protected ammo depots in #Toropets for 19K tons of missiles & explosives in 2015-18, after it attacked Ukraine, just 100mi from NATO's border? Because Russia planned to use it in its war vs. NATO after it beats Ukraine.
