An explosion at a navy weapons depot killed at least eight soldiers and injured several others on Monday, less than two weeks after a similar blast at the same depot killed two and forced the evacuation of thousands.
The explosion in the Ulyanovsk region in central Russia occurred while soldiers were disposing of unexploded munitions left over from the first explosion on Nov. 13, a Defense Ministry spokesman said on Russian television.
The soldiers were loading one of the munitions onto a truck when it exploded and set off several others, he said.
