Kremlin claims explosions in Crimean airfield caused by munitions detonation.

Following reports of explosions in Russian-occupied Crimea, Russian Defense Ministry said that the blasts on the territory of the Saki Air Base occurred due to the detonation of several munitions at a bunded storage area. Local residents earlier told Ukrainska Pravda that explosions were heard from the airfield in Novofedorivka, located in the western part of the peninsula. Ukraine hasn't yet commented.

The above from Kyiv Independent.
