News summary

A significant drone attack by Ukraine on an ammunition depot in the Tver region of Russia has resulted in massive explosions, with reports suggesting the detonation could be equivalent to up to 1.8 kilotons of TNT. The strike targeted a facility in Toropets, which housed a large stockpile of munitions, including Iskander missiles, and was described as one of the most substantial attacks of the ongoing conflict. Local authorities have initiated a partial evacuation due to the toxic smoke and ongoing explosions, while social media footage depicts a dramatic mushroom cloud rising from the site. Ukrainian officials have indicated that such attacks are part of a broader strategy to diminish Russia's military capabilities, although the Ukrainian defense ministry did not confirm the specific operation. The Russian military has faced challenges in securing its facilities, as evidenced by past drone strikes on military installations. As the situation unfolds, it remains unclear if there have been any casualties among the local population.
