Multiple Mysterious Explosions Reported in the Sky Over Russia, Video Shows
Newsweek ^ | 5/3/22 | Brendan Cole

Explosions have been heard in the sky over Belgorod, the Russian city near the Ukrainian border where Kyiv's forces have previously been accused of hitting military targets.

Night footage in which the sound of explosions and car alarms are prominent was posted on social media. Users reported that air defense systems had been deployed during the blasts on Tuesday, although this has not been confirmed.

"A loud bang, similar to the sound of an explosion of medium strength, was heard in the center of Belgorod," state news agency RIA Novosti reported.

On Monday, one person was injured in a fire at a Russian defense ministry facility in the city that lies around 20 miles from the Ukrainian border and a series of explosions were also reported.

In April, Russia accused Ukraine of targeting a fuel depot in Belgorod amid reports of Kyiv's forces hitting key infrastructure.

“...Kyiv’s forces have previously been accused of hitting military targets.”


Accused? I thought they bragged about it.

Whatever it was it was launched very close to target.

Drone strike?

Utterly insane if true. That would probably get us nuked.

Isn’t it time we grow more comfortable with the threat of thermonuclear war?

Enemies will often strike each other when they are at war.

Those explosions would have been much larger if it had been a B2 strike.

“where Kyiv’s forces have previously been accused of hitting military targets.”

In war military targets are the ones you want to hit. Nothing gets past the geniuses at Newsweek.

I can’t tell if it’s launched from the air, or if there is a hill back there.
