Baku-APA. Evacuation was ordered as shells began to explode at an artillery depot in Udmurtia, a republic in the Volga area, a local police source told RIA Novosti, APA reports quoting RIA Novosti.
"At 23:50 Moscow time [19:50 GMT] we were informed that shells are exploding in the Defense ministry’s artillery depot near the village of Pugachevo," the source said.
About 2,000 local residents are being evacuated.
