Governor of Belgorod Oblast Vyacheslav Gladkov reported that an ammunition depot was on fire near the village of Staraya Nelidovka, less than 20 miles from the Ukrainian border.

A huge plume of fire and smoke were seen rising into the sky over the village in the early hours of the morning. 

The fire had been extinguished and no civilians have been injured, the governor said. (ILKHA)
