The Defense Forces of Ukraine could have attacked another Main Missile and Artillery Directorate (GRAU) of the russian Ministry of Defense on the territory of the russian federation. A number of videos of the fire were posted online, with the 67th GRAU Arsenal geolocated. This is one of the closest arsenals to Ukraine. It is located near the city of Karachev in Bryansk Oblast, approximately 114 km from the border. Satellite images from several years ago show that some of the ammunition was stored in the open air. The total area of this arsenal is about 3.5 square kilometers.
The russian Ministry of Defense traditionally reported on downed drones. According to the statements, russian air defense allegedly intercepted 47 drones on the night of October 9, including 24 drones over Bryansk Oblast. The governor of the region, Alexander Bogomaz, has also complained about the drone attack, saying that "there were no casualties or damage."

As of now, it is difficult to talk about any specific results of this attack. It is worth waiting for satellite images to make any detailed conclusions. In the meantime, the Defense Forces of Ukraine have successfully attacked the enemy GRAU arsenals several times in recent weeks.
First of all, we are talking about the destruction of the 107th GRAU arsenal on the night of September 18 this year. As a result of this attack, an earthquake with a magnitude of 2.8 on the Richter scale was recorded.
Satellite images taken after the attack on this GRAU arsenal show the craters that were visible from space. Based on the results of the image analysis, we can say that this object was destroyed by about 80%, which is an excellent result.
In addition, in September, another 2.6 square kilometer arsenal and an ammunition base, where shells from the DPRK were transported, were also hit.
Earlier Defense Express described in detail how many other key arsenals of russian Ministry of Defense, such as those in Toropets, are within range of Ukraine.
