On the evening of April 20, an explosion thundered in the Russian city of Belgorod. Soon after the explosion, the Russian Ministry of Defence explained that the reason was an “unauthorized liftoff of ammunition from the Russian Su-34 aircraft”.
Russian aerial bomb accidentally fell on the street in Belgorod. As a result, some buildings were damaged. Three civilians were injured, one of them was hospitalized. People were evacuated from the damaged buildings. They were accommodated in local hotels.
A funnel of about 20 meters remained on one of the central streets.
“An investigation is underway,” the Russian military department added.
The accident most likely occurred as a result of a malfunction. Unlike their enemies in Ukraine, who are hitting civilian homes and blaming the Russian military for their own mistakes and provocations, the Russian Ministry of Defense honestly took responsibility for the fall of the bomb, which once again strengthened public confidence in the Russian military.
