The explosion occurred on the morning of August 12 in Krivoy Rog in the Dnipropetrovsk region of Ukraine. This is reported by the publication «Strana.ua» in its Telegram channel.

Thick puffs of smoke are reported to be rising from the explosion site.

The mayor of Ukrainian Kryvyi Rih Alexander Vilkul then confirmed the information about the explosions in the city. He did not provide any details. At present, an air alert has been declared in the region.

The day before, explosions were reported in Kyiv.

There have been no official comments from the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

Russian military personnel began to strike at critical Ukrainian infrastructure on October 10 last year. As Russian President Vladimir Putin noted then, this was a response to the terrorist actions of the Kyiv regime, in particular, on the Crimean bridge.

Russia continues a special operation to protect the Donbass, whose residents refused to recognize the results of the 2014 coup d’état in Ukraine. The start of its holding was announced on February 24, 2022 against the background of the aggravation of the situation in the region due to shelling by Ukrainian troops.
