Why warehouses in Kolbasna are so important — it is the largest arsenal in Europe.
Created in the 1940s.
The warehouses contain the arsenal of the 14th Guards Combined Arms Army of the USSR, weapons and ammunition from the GDR and Czechoslovakia.
For 2000 – about 42,000 tons of weapons and ammunition.
From 2000 to 2004, according to the Istanbul agreements, more than 20 thousand tons of ammunition were removed or destroyed on the spot.
The arsenal today is more than 20 thousand tons of artillery ammunition, infantry ammunition, and other military equipment.
Experts’ opinion – the amount of ammunition is enough for decades of war.
The detonation of the arsenal will be equal to the nuclear bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
Warehouses under the protection of the operational group of Russian troops and the military of Transnistria. The information was collected by @krepostpmr.
