The fire destroyed several fuel tanks in a warehouse in the Russian city of Belgorod near the Ukrainian border.
The Belgorod fire, which destroyed several oil tankers in local warehouses, as well as possible ammunition, will place a short -term additional burden on Russia’s already tight supply chain. On Friday, April 1, it was told intelligence Britain.
In particular, the UK Ministry of Defense suggests that because of the incident, Russian troops attacking Kharkov will face a shortage of resources.
“The supply of resources to Russian troops surrounding Kharkov (60 km from Belgorod) could particularly suffer,” the intelligence said.
It was learned that on the night of March 30, ammunition depots in Belgorod exploded. Russia immediately said the cause of the incident was the “human factor”.
On the morning of April 1, a large fire broke out at an oil depot in Belgorod.
The General Staff, commenting on the explosions in warehouses in the Russian Federation, noted that the Russians continue to store and use obsolete ammunition. The fire occurred due to a violation of safety requirements for operation, officially announced in Ukraine.
Earlier it was reported that an exercise of the Strategic Missile Forces (RVSN) with the participation of more than 2 thousand military and intercontinental missile system Yars has begun in the Sverdlovsk region.
