Foreign weapons in Ukraine have become prime targets for Russian bombing. The Ukrainians are also accused of targeting ammunition depots in Russia and Moldova.

As the war continues in Ukraine, each side is now trying to destroy the enemy’s weapons depots. A factory in Zaporizhia (Ukraine), in the Donbass, was thus the target of bombardments. The Russians claim to have destroyed a large quantity of weapons in this factory. They would have been, they say, delivered to Ukraine by the United States and European countries. But the Ukrainians deny it. According to them, there were no weapons in this factory.

“This destruction, in a non-functioning factory which, until recently, was owned by Russia, confirms that this is all fakery”denounces Ivan Arefyev, spokesman for the military administration of Zaporizhia. On Russian territory, another ammunition attack also took place in Belgorod. A Russian television presenter explained that the depot in this city was on fire, but the Ukrainians denied being at the origin of these explosions.
