‘Significant’ Russian ammunition depot destroyed: Ukrainian official

Kyiv, The Gulf Observer: Ukrainian forces have destroyed a “significant” ammunition depot near the Russian-occupied port city of Henichesk in the southern region of Kherson, Serhiy Bratchuk, spokesperson for the Odesa military administration has said.

“Our armed forces dealt a good blow in the morning – and a very loud one – in the village of Rykove, Henichesk district, in the temporarily occupied territory of the Kherson region,” Bratchuk said in a morning video message.

“There was a very significant ammunition depot. It was destroyed.”

Rykove is about 20km from Henichesk, a port city along the Sea of Azov in southern Ukraine, which has been controlled by Kremlin forces since the early days of Russia’s incursion of Ukraine in February 2022.
