Explosions in Melitopol: Russian military base and depot hit - Mayor Fedorov

On Wednesday, June 28, explosions occurred in the temporarily occupied Melitopol, Zaporizhzhia region. Preliminary information suggests that a Russian military base and a depot used for weapons logistics were targeted in the attack

Melitopol mayor, Ivan Fedorov, reported the information.

"Yesterday was a highly tense day for the occupiers in the temporarily occupied Melitopol and the Zaporizhzhia region. The series of events began around midnight with over 5 explosions in Melitopol. Further explosions occurred around 10 a.m. and the day ended for the occupiers with explosions that occurred at about 8 pm," the mayor said.

The explosions were heard in the area of a local depot, which Russian forces use for the transportation of their weapons and ammunition from the temporarily occupied Crimea.

"And now the Melitopol depot, along with the diesel locomotives and electric locomotives present there, will no longer be operational for logistics purposes," he added.

Explosions also occurred on the territory of a military base in Aviamistechko, a neighborhood in the northwestern part of Melitopol, and near the village of Kostiantynivka, where Russian troops were concentrated.
