Russian forces move equipment out of a military depot in Crimea

Recent satellite imagery shows that this site had tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery

Russian forces recently moved equipment out of a military depot in occupied Crimea.

High resolution imagery captured by Maxar in February and published by The Washington Post shows that this depot contained tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery. By March, many of these vehicles had left the site.

The removal of the equipment can be seen clearly when comparing high resolution satellite imagery from February 11th to March 16th.

Low-resolution satellite imagery from the European Space Agency’s Copernicus program shows that use of the site for equipment storage ramped up late in 2022.
