An overnight drone attack carried out by Ukrainian forces successfully targeted and destroyed an ammunition depot in the western Russian region of Tver. According to a source from Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU), the attack specifically aimed at the Russian defense ministry-operated warehouse in Toropets, which housed Iskander tactical missile systems, Tochka-U tactical missile systems, guided aerial bombs, and artillery ammunition.
The strike resulted in large fires erupting from the debris of the drones, which were reportedly repelled by local air defenses. In response to the situation, the regional government ordered a partial evacuation of the area under the direction of Governor Igor Rudenya during the early hours of Wednesday morning.
