Strike on the arsenal in Toropets: how many munitions Russia lost.


Russia lost munitions stocks due to Ukrainian drone attack
Head of the Estonian Military Intelligence Center, Colonel Ants Kiviselg, reported that Russia lost a stockpile of munitions sufficient for two to three months due to a Ukrainian drone attack on a military warehouse in Toropets.
«30 thousand tons of explosive munitions were detonated, amounting to 750 thousand shells. If we take the average combat rate, the Russian Federation fires 10 thousand shots per week. Thus, this is a stockpile of munitions for two to three months. As a result of this attack, Russia lost munitions, and we will see the impact of these losses on the front in the coming weeks», the statement noted.
It is reminiscent that on the night of September 18 in the city of Toropets, Tver region, a series of powerful explosions occurred. According to preliminary information, drones attacked an ammunition depot, causing large-scale fires. The blast wave was so powerful that buildings in the surrounding settlements suffered significant damage.
Earlier, satellite images of Toropets after the shelling were published online. The images show fires and significant smoke.
Experts believe that such attacks on Russian ammunition and missile depots will weaken the enemy's logistics and offensive potential.
