KHERSON – Ukrainian forces destroyed a “significant” ammunition depot near the Russian-occupied port city of Henichesk in the southern region of Kherson, spokesman for the Odesa military administration Serhiy Bratchuk said on Sunday.
“Our armed forces dealt a good blow in the morning – and a very loud one – in the village of Rykove, Henichesk district, in the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson region,” Mr Bratchuk said in a morning video message on Sunday.
“There was a very significant ammunition depot. It was destroyed.”
Reuters could not independently verify the information. There was no immediate comment from Russia on the alleged attack.
Ukrainian media posted videos showing a vast plume of smoke rising far on the horizon with sounds of blasts.
