Ammunition Depot Explodes Near Belgorod

An explosion at an ammunition depot and a subsequent secondary detonation occurred near the village of Belovskoye in the Belgorod region.

Before the explosion, black smoke rose above the forest, which may indicate a UAV attack that caused a fire, followed by a powerful explosion.

Russian military positions in the Belovskoye area are visible on Google Maps and satellite imagery, according to analysts from the “Pepel” group.

Publicly available satellite images show trucks, construction materials, traces of heavy equipment, and fortified positions covered with protective sheeting.

According to observers, the scale of the fortified positions may indicate significant military casualties during the detonation.

The footage captured at least four separate columns of black smoke located in different parts of the forest. This may indicate strikes on targets in the area of the village of Novosadovyi and the village of Belovskoye in the Belgorod region.

The appearance of multiple sources of smoke is characteristic of the detonation of ammunition depots or the simultaneous placement of explosive materials at various locations.
