Explosion occurred near railway depot in Melitopol

Ivan Fedorov, the mayor of Melitopol, said this during the telethon.

"The morning started not well also for the enemy, with explosions. There was a powerful explosion that was heard not only in the city of Melitopol, but also in the surrounding villages," he said.

Fedorov noted that the explosion occurred near a railroad depot. Russians concentrate their equipment and ammunition there. They also set up a repair base on the railroad depot, which was already damaged but not completely destroyed. Presumably, the invaders are still unable to follow the safety procedures.
