Kyiv, Ukraine: Ukraine said on Saturday it had successfully struck two Russian weapons depots in the southern Krasnodar and western Tver regions, with Moscow announcing more than 1,000 evacuations.
Kyiv regularly hits Russian infrastructure with drones as Moscow's offensive drags on for more than two and a half years.
The Ukrainian army said it had hit a depot near the city of Tikhoretsk in Krasnodar, calling it one of Moscow's "three largest ammunition storage bases" important to the Russian army's logistics for its Ukraine invasion.
It also said it struck an arsenal in Tver region's Oktyabrsky village, resulting in a "fire and detonation".
The governor of the Krasnodar region, Veniamin Kondratyev, announced the evacuation of 1,200 people after a drone attack had caused a fire that "spread to explosive objects" near Tikhoretsk.
