A Russian ammunition depot was struck in the most recent series of retaliatory strikes on May 4th that a senior Ukrainian official called “karma” for the Kremlin’s illegal war against their sovereign neighbors. The depot in Belgorod, forty kilometers deep into Russia near the border with Ukraine, was left in a huge ball of flames after a loud explosion woke residents just after 3:30 a.m., local Gov. Vyacheslav Gladkov wrote on Telegram.
“There were no casualties among the civilian population,” the official said, without detailing if that included those at the ammunition site.
Explosions were likewise heard in another border province, Kursk, where the regional guv declared an unmanned Ukrainian aerial automobile was obstructed over Russian skies.
Two blasts were likewise heard in Voronezh, where authorities stated its air defense systems likewise damaged a little reconnaissance drone.
Ukrainian governmental advisor Mykhailo Podolyak later on gloated over the attacks, which followed a recent series of similar blasts.
“The Belgorod, Voronezh, and Kursk regions are now also beginning to actively study such a concept as ‘demilitarization,’” he wrote, a clear nod to the Kremlin’s reason for the war, which it calls a ‘special military operation’ to deactivate and “denazify” its next-door neighbor.
“In these Russian regions, large fuel depots, which provided fuel for the armored vehicles of the Russian army, periodically burn, and ammunition depots explode. For different reasons. And they are doing it more and more actively and confidently,” Podolyak wrote.
He stated that if Russians “decide to attack another country en masse, kill everyone there in a row, massacre civilians with tanks, and use warehouses in your areas to ensure the killings, sooner or later the debts will have to be repaid.”
He stated it was difficult to overlook “such intensity and volume of the Russian military invasion of Ukraine.”
“And that is why the disarmament of the Belgorod-Voronezh killers’ warehouses is an absolutely natural, natural process,” he said.
“Karma is a cruel thing.”
