In the Russian Federation, drones attacked a warehouse with Iskander, Onyx, Kalibr, and North Korean ballistic missiles.

Ukrainian drones struck an ammunition depot in Russia

On the night of September 18, in the town of Toropets in the Tver region of Russia, Ukrainian drones struck the 107th arsenal of the Main Directorate of Russia. The warehouse, located 480 kilometers from the Ukrainian border, was used to store various munitions, including missiles for the Grad, S-300, and S-400 systems, as well as ballistic missiles for the Iskander complexes.

This was reported by "Khvilya", citing publications in local public groups and reactions from Russian propagandists.

According to eyewitness reports, the explosions began around three in the morning and lasted several hours. The scale of the detonation was so significant that local residents compared the event to a grand fireworks display. As a result of the attack, a large fire broke out at the depot.

The irony of the situation lies in the fact that this "advanced complex with concrete shelters" was ceremonially opened in 2018 by the Deputy Minister of Defense of Russia, Dmitry Bulgakov, who is now in custody. The complex was positioned as a reliable storage facility for missiles and munitions.

The authorities of the neighboring town of Zavidovo announced the closure of schools and kindergartens. Partial evacuation of the population began in Toropets. The situation was especially difficult in the village of Tsykarevo, located in close proximity to the burning depots. The villagers found themselves cut off from evacuation routes and were forced to await help on the shore of the lake.

This strike inflicted significant damage on the Russian army. According to experts, the warehouse stored expensive missiles, including Kh-101 cruise missiles worth up to $13 million each, Kalibr missiles priced at $6.5 million, as well as missiles for the Iskander, Onyx, and Kh-22 complexes.

In addition, it is reported that Russia has begun to stockpile KN23 ballistic missiles at this depot, which the aggressor receives from North Korea. Panic statements are appearing on the internet, claiming that "tactical nuclear weapons" are exploding there.

The successful drone attack at such a significant distance from the front line has caused panic in Russian military circles. Propagandists on social media express concern, noting that "this way the war cannot be won".
