Russian ammo dump explodes

Thousands of people were evacuated from Achinsk, a military town in Siberia’s Krasnoyarsk region on Monday after an ammunitions dump exploded.

Witnesses began posting videos of the fireball and black smoke in the sky.

A Russian government-owned media organisation TASS reports 12 people were injured, saying ‘ two disposal sites caught fire, with a total of about 25 thousand munitions.’
