Explosions near Samara: the cannonade does not subside

59
The night before, ammunition began to explode at a military training ground near the town of Chapaevsk, and there was a strong fire. According to recent reports, more than 30 people were injured, 11 of whom were hospitalized. Nearly 6,5 thousands of residents were evacuated from the danger area. The area of ​​fire is three hectares. Shells explode every 10-15 minutes, the fragments scatter within a kilometer radius. Three aircraft EMERCOM of Russia with rescuers arrived in Samara, another board took off from the airport near Moscow Ramenskoye. Four helicopters will also be attracted to the fire. The head of the region Nikolay Merkushkin, who is now in the operational headquarters, took the situation under personal control.

Returning from Anapa to their native Chelyabinsk, they could not even imagine that the holiday would end in a fiery nightmare, loss of a car and an ambulance. Vyacheslav Gvozdkov recalls: "We drove, drove, did not touch anyone, there was an explosion. All the windows in the car were knocked out by a blast wave, even the fire went through it."

Those who were lucky to evade lead hail, took out fellow travelers from under the fire. Help was needed by many, all were with various injuries. As a rule, they were fragmental wounds from shells.

The first explosion at the Volga range of ammunition sounded about seven o'clock in the evening. Thousands of residents of the Nagorny settlement became witnesses, and within an hour video frames with huge smoky mushrooms appeared on the Internet. The cannonade lasted all night and didn’t subside by morning. Experts said that 23-millimeter shells explode. Until everyone detonates, the salute will not end, and people are unlikely to be allowed to return home.

Explosions are still heard on the horizon, although quite a lot of time has passed. The consequence of the scattering of fragments is the old grass that burns over a vast territory, as a result of which everything is clouded with smoke.

It was also possible to save all those who were directly on the range - the workers of the arsenal were taken under cover of armored vehicles. According to the staff, there is no threat of detonation of unguided rocket projectiles, since they are stored separately. But it is still too early to wait for silence. Nikolai Turbovets, acting chief of the Central Internal Affairs Directorate in the Samara Region, predicts: “Well, in any case, there will be another three or four more explosions, because it’s not so easy to put out.”

In the near future it will be decided when the residents will be able to return to their homes, and the special commission will have to answer the question of what caused the next state of emergency with ammunition.

      I even googled and didn’t see the arsenals in Chapaevsk, and also something that would be near the R-226 highway. The only place is the industrial zone near the river and Eric Lake is dirty.
      23 mm. ammunition at once and so destructively beautifully does not explode.

        The fact of the matter is that it is not army arsenals that explode, but accumulated at the test site of the Chapaevsky pilot plant of measuring instruments. It is not about sloppiness in the army that one needs to talk (it has nothing to do with it), but pay attention to the state of defense industry enterprises and their bases.

            The prosecutor's office of the Samara region organized an audit on the fact of explosions at the proving ground of the federal state-owned enterprise “Volga State Ammunition Testing Ground”.
            The ammunition depot contains about 12-13 million pieces of 23-30 mm caliber shells, 7 thousand 120 mm caliber ammunition, as well as 3 tons of TNT explosives (industrial TNT checkers) http: //www.samara. com / read / 4

            Right. Somehow it turned out that the company organized a huge saving. They will also get insurance ... Question. What explodes is clear. But what burns there? Do they store shells mixed with fuels and lubricants? Or in wooden log cabins? Somehow from the shell boxes the glow of the sun is strange.

      he says one thing, but ammunition, reserves, people, conditions for future victories are being destroyed ...
      It’s unfortunate to see all this ... well, and if the Ministry of Emergencies declares it to be some kind of sloppiness .... then the fate of Gaddafi is a foregone conclusion to the colonel ....

      Yes, because !, there is no one who will scatter everyone, and there won’t be such, do we need a management system ?, and it won’t exist either. Do you have to punish ?, and this will not happen because everyone is to blame, but after a big shakeup after which everyone will forget about the little things, let go of the past, then you can build a new model of management and law)

      ps: here the guys from the Caucasus, the Salafis, apparently interpret their version of what is happening, and so confidently interpret this, for example: According to the FSB media from the occupied Volga region of Samaria (the so-called Samara region), the Russian invaders again bombed the civilian population. According to the Russians, in the village of Nagorny, a suburb of the city of Chapaevsk, 840 km southeast of Moscow, "ammunition was detonated."

        And you yourself are not afraid to get into this series of switchmen? But you probably try at work, work hard until the seventh sweat? And here you once and to the wall, at the same time, what would others as a warning ... Well, how's the prospect? But you tried, well, so tried ..., already teeth were grinding ...
        You have truly fallen from the moon and for the last 10-15 years have been there on a reservation. Do not know how the country lived? How was the army funded? How they didn’t pay money for 3 ... etc. months? Do you really think about the content of ammunition and fire safety money was ?? And they were stolen by military thieves, right ??
        Personally, I will answer you - many officers need to bow low to their feet, that all these arsenals, warehouses, etc. don’t take off every WEEK !!! After all, you don’t think a damn thing about what you write.
        And the explosions simply from the fact that people do not give a damn about their sense of self-preservation. That's why they smoke in warehouses, secretly from commanders, steal water from fire barrels, use fire extinguishers for soda, remove buckets from shields and carry them away in an unknown direction, etc. In short - our people are like that. Someone calls it the Russian MENTALITY. But it seems to me - this is degradation. Because the ammunition on its own will not explode, the explosions are the work of human hands, though growing out of the wrong place. Another question - why take notorious degenerates into the service, knowing that they are legally trusted with weapons and ammunition ???? Let local governments answer this question, for it is they who check the youth’s readiness for service, including when they enter higher military institutions (!!!).
        So who is to blame for the bombings? Now answer for yourself ... And the commanders here are often not at all to blame.
        I didn’t mean to offend you !! Good luck.

      These are not warehouses where tons are stored for decades, but just a testing ground, in fact, a plant for the disposal and testing of shells (ammunition). A batch of 10000 shells arrived, 10 checked, 9990 returned, all under supervision, not to mention double protection (VOKhR + FSB). In any case, I liked the way our special services worked quickly; after half an hour, all residents received an SMS notification about the emergency. All the same, they learned from the tragedy in Krymsk.

    I remember that in Primorye, in the Shkotovsky District, 53 km 10-12 years ago, a warehouse with aerial bombs exploded. He himself was 30 km from the warehouses (and the brother personally observed from the window of the five-story building how mushrooms grow from 12-15 km from By the age of 5 tons of air bombs and other trifles), and there the gaps would be heard. About in the villages closer, where the houses were beaten, where the windows with doors flew out. Then the mushroom pickers on the hills found shells for a long time. And they wrote off everything to the soldiers as if they were indulging in a saber. And my opinion, they sold shells and swept the tracks ...

    The fire at the Volga state test ammunition test site near the village of Nagorny in the Samara Region is localized, RIA Novosti reported on the morning of June 19, citing Oleg Voronov, head of the information department of the Russian Emergencies Ministry.

    Over the past one and a half to two hours, no explosions of ammunition have occurred at the firing range, he said. Thanks to the professionally conducted work of the fire and rescue units of the Russian Emergencies Ministry, it was possible to prevent the spread of fire towards the village of Nagorny, Voronov emphasized.

    The explosions at the Volga state test ammunition test site near the village of Nagorny began on Tuesday, June 18, at about 19:30 Moscow time. Almost 6,5 thousand residents were evacuated from the village of Nagorny and the city of Chapaevsk. An emergency mode has been introduced in the area of ​​the incident.

    In warehouses at the landfill, 13 million pieces of artillery shells intended for disposal were stored. According to preliminary estimates, a fire can take up to three days.

And why it is impossible to trace whether the new apartments and cottages bought responsible for warehouses?

    Near the city of Chapaevsk from 1927 to 1929 - Trotsk, named after one of the Bolshevik leaders of Trotsky. The city of Chapaevsk is the city of death, as the residents themselves call it. 80% of children are sick. Since 1991, the birth rate in the city decreased by 40%, women are afraid to give birth sick children. In human breast milk, dioxins were found to be 400 times higher than normal! In 1994, the United Nations special commission, after numerous studies, declared the city of Chapaevsk an ecological disaster zone. Rosprirodnadzor in 2000 initiated the assignment of Chapaevsk status to the city of ecological disaster, but in 2005 this status from the city was removed. All due to the production of ammunition from the OV. Now there is an import of waste from the production of the oil refinery in Novokuybyshevsk. "
    In general, a typical Soviet and now Russian gulag without barbed wire with the death penalty for people and their children. Trotsky would be pleased.

    Or maybe it’s this kind of disposal - they set it on fire, the shells exploded, so to speak, disposed of. And there are no costs, and the state will still help. After all, they will not find the extreme.

    Due to the fact that it is not so easy to put out, such vehicles should be at every fire department at ammunition depots:
