The detonation of ammunition occurred in the north of Crimea.
Residents of the village of Maiskoye are being evacuated due to the incident.
Translated from Rybar:

Apparently, in the vicinity of Maisky in the Dzhankoy district of Crimea, a warehouse with ammunition really explodes.

In this case, a fire on the territory of the power plant could have occurred as a result of a “undershoot” or falling fragments of a downed rocket projectile.

About another explosion in Crimea

The main problem is the lack of understanding that in fact there is a military operation against a capable enemy, who is supported by the entire collective West. Supported with long-range weapons, instructors, mercenaries, targeting and reconnaissance equipment.

And we, unfortunately, have an opinion that we are at war with "some kind of hohols (nick-name for Ukrainians)" whom we have not rolled into a pancake just because "we have not even started yet." Yes, in the Bryansk, Kursk and Belgorod regions, which actually have got the taste of wartime, there is now a semi-official martial law. Measures have been taken, power structures treat what is happening with the utmost seriousness.

In Crimea, one gets the impression that people are working, but somehow relaxed. Well, there was a “buffer” presented by Zaporozhye and Kherson regions, they won’t get through it. And the tourist season is now, why bother people for nothing?

Well, they get through. And there are saboteurs. And among the refugees there are many “heil-ukranians” who change their shoes on the go. And the activity of sabotage and reconnaissance groups is huge.

We very much hope that conclusions will be drawn. And at sensitive facilities - it doesn't matter, warehouses, territories of military units, factories, power plants - directly or indirectly connected with the liberated territories, they will no longer be relaxed about what is happening.

Russian MOD Shoigu: we know for certain that no one in NATO leadership has any doubts that the goals of the special operation in Ukraine set by the Russian leadership will be achieved.

Russian MOD Shoigu: the special operation dispelled the myth about the superweapon that the West supplies to Ukraine and which can radically change the situation at the front.

"Initially, it was about the supply of Javelin anti-tank systems, some unique drones. Recently, HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems and long-range howitzers are moving towards the role of superweapons - however, these weapons are also ground in battles, they did not have a significant impact on the situation."

"We are carefully studying captured samples of Western weapons, taking into account their features in order to improve the methods of warfare and increase the effectiveness of Russian weapons."

Gazprom: gas prices on spot in Europe broke through $2,500 per thousand cubic meters, according to conservative estimates, with such a trend in winter, they may exceed $4,000.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Kuleba admitted that a number of Western countries are waiting for Kyiv to capitulate in confrontation with Russia.

"I am often asked in interviews by foreign ministers: 'How long can you hold on?' "

"I answer them all that you have the wrong optics, instead of asking what needs to be done to defeat Putin in the shortest possible time, you are still waiting for us to collapse and the problem will disappear by itself".

⚡️The United Kingdom has submitted a flight plan application for a British RC-135 reconnaissance aircraft to fly along a route including over Russian Federation territory.

▫️We consider this action to be a deliberate provocation.

▫️Russian Aerospace Forces have been tasked with preventing the violation of Russian Federation airspace.

▫️All the possible consequences of this deliberate provocation will be borne solely by the United Kingdom.

According to the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Zaluzhny, Russian troops fire at Ukrainian positions 700-800 times a day, firing from 40 to 60 thousand units of ammunition.

According to him, the location of missile systems along the state border from Belarus, in particular, at the Zyabrovka airfield, causes concern.

In addition, Russian forces continue to advance along the entire front line. The most tense situation, according to him, is now in the Avdeevka-Peski-Marinka area.

Footage of the combat work of radio complex specialists performing the tasks of relaying radio signals to the population of the liberated territories of the Kharkov region.

The built radio complex can be heard within a radius of 15 km. Radio "Life" is broadcast on the air - popular music, current news and detailed instructions for surrendering to Ukrainian nationalists.

According to signalmen, the Armed Forces of Ukraine can find out information on why laying down arms is the right choice, how to surrender correctly so as not to fall under fire.

"Radio life, instructions! Soldiers and officers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, your resistance is useless," the radio station says.
▪️ Russian artillery attacked Nikopol and Marganets, from where the Armed Forces of Ukraine are shelling Energodar and the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.

▪️ During the sabotage in Crimea, explosions occurred at an ammunition depot in the Dzhankoy area and an air force base in Gvardeisky.

So, it is officially admitted that the recent explosions in Crimea were acts of subotage.
Judging by certain signs, according to a number of experts, the Third World War has begun and is already underway after the formation of the second point of open conflict between the United States and China in Taiwan. Together with the "Ukrainian conflict", the "Taiwan crisis" is the corresponding scaling of the military confrontation, accompanied by the transition to a wartime economy against the background of mutual sanctions. The reason is a direct demand from the United States for sovereign countries to obey and adopt a new order: rules instead of law, and, acting in this role, the United States has finally turned into an anti–civilization.
