Russia Air Base Blasts

3 people were killed when a fuel tanker exploded at a Russian air base, a state news agency said, and a regional governor acknowledged reports of a blast at a separate base housing bombers that are part of Russia's strategic nuclear for forces.

Satellite images of the air base show the runways are intact. Ukraine has not claimed responsibility, but experts call it a targeted attack.

One person was killed on Tuesday when a Russian air base near seaside resorts in the annexed Crimean peninsula was rocked by a series of blasts that Moscow said were detonations of stored ammunition, not the result of any attack.

The United States on Thursday dropped the largest non-nuclear bomb ever used in a battlefield, Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb - MOAB (also known as the Mother of All Bombs based on the acronym).
