The UK Defense Ministry reported that explosions at Russia's 51st GRAU arsenal in April were likely due to poor weapons handling and negligent storage practices. This incident, which damaged a significant strategic depot near Moscow, marks the Kremlin's largest loss of munitions since the war in Ukraine began. Historical patterns of mishandling munitions have been identified as contributing factors. Satellite imagery confirmed extensive damage, emphasizing the importance of adherence to safety protocols which appear to have been neglected.
A combination of poor weapons handling and bad storage practices likely led to the blasts that rocked Russia's 51st GRAU arsenal in late April.
It is in keeping with a long-standing trend of regularly evidenced Russian ineptitude with regards the safe and proper handling of its own munitions.
