Russian Air Base Explosion

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.

New satellite photos of explosions at a Russian air base in Crimea compare the condition of the facility as it existed on May 16 and how it looked on August 11.

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.
