Russia has blamed saboteurs for explosions at a military warehouse in northern Crimea that forced the evacuation of more than 3,000 people, reports Aljazeera.
According to the Russian media report, Defence Ministry alleged that the explosions on Tuesday rocked an ammunition storage facility near the village of Mayskoye and disrupted train services and power supplies although nobody was seriously injured in the blasts.
Kommersant newspaper also reported on another possible act of sabotage in Crimea, quoting witnesses as saying that plumes of smoke could be seen over a Russian military airbase in Gvardeyskoye.
Earlier last week, blasts at a military airbase on Crimea’s western coast caused extensive damage and destroyed several Russian war planes.
