A ammunition depot in the Voronezh region is burning in Russia after a drone attack

The authorities of the Voronezh Region reported a fire and explosions after a drone attack. As reported by Censor.NET, Russian media wrote about this.

The head of the region, Alexander Gusev, reported that air defense forces discovered and shot down a drone in the Ostrogozhsky District. As a result of the drone's fall, a fire broke out, which "spread to explosive objects", then detonation began. At the same time, Gusev did not specify either the scale of the fire or the nature of the "explosive objects".

The Russians report that the fire and detonation of ammunition has been going on for more than two hours. The governor also noted that it was decided to temporarily evacuate residents of one village to a neighboring settlement.

"The evacuation will be carried out in several settlements. The employees of the operational services will inform residents of the village closest to the fire about its beginning and the procedure," the governor later wrote.

This is already the second attack on the Ostrogozhsky District in the last two weeks. On August 24, Ukrainian forces already dealt a crushing blow to a Russian army ammunition depot, after which the detonation continued for about a day.
