RUSSIA has declared a state of emergency in one of its regions after Kyiv launched a huge kamikaze drone strike on a missile storage facility. 
Video circulating on social media showed explosions erupt in Russia's Voronezh region after a hit on one of Vlad's ammunition dumps. 
Authorities were urgently evacuating residents after the Ukrainians struck around 3am. 
A huge blaze burned and there were follow-up explosions throughout the night. 
Footage taken from a highway showed constant explosions as the night sky was lit up by bright orange flashes. 
A major highway was closed while shells and other munitions exploded. 
The eruptions continued for hours, according to local Telegram channels. 
Voronezh governor Alexander Gusev said: “The drone's impact caused a fire that spread to explosive materials, leading to detonations.” 
A state of emergency was declared the Ostrogozhsky district, while hundreds of residents were rushed from Soldatskoye village - about 50 miles west of Belgorod. 
Temporary accommodation has been set up for displaced residents, reports say.

    Why governments concentrate their munitions so closely together has always made me wonder if they are idiots.

    Ukraine hit the storage dump for KN-23 missiles that have been delivered to Russia from North Korea.

    “kamikaze drone”
Do kamikaze drones destroy by committing suicide?

    Not a good idea to keep poking the Bear. Vlad has shown much restraint, that may change when his citizens start calling for a pound of flesh.

    Agreed ... I doubt that Vlad imagines the flag of his enemies as being anything other than red, white and blue.
