On Tuesday, four people were injured and thousands of residents fled as two villages were evacuated following two explosions at a military testing ground 40 kilometers from the city of Orenburg in Central Russia.
A fire at the facility’s loading dock caused missiles stored there to explode. Rescuers evacuated the nearby Donguz settlement. The missiles were scheduled for disposal.
A train loaded with missiles set for disposal caught fire at a testing ground outside Orenburg. Several of the missiles exploded, resulting in a series of powerful blasts.
