The Russian-installed administration in the town have claimed at least seven people were reportedly killed in the blast, the statement and could not be immediately verified, though footage on social media showed a large explosion lighting up the night, burning ammunition and towering smoke. The explosion hit a warehouse close to a key railway line and a dam on the Dnipro River. Imaging from Nasa’s Firms global fire tracking system showed a number of secondary blazes in buildings around the initial blast site
