See main article: 2017 Kalynivka ammunition depot explosion. On 26 September 2017, at about 10:00 pm (19:00 UTC), the munitions depot for the Ukrainian Army, just south of the town, blew up causing extensive damage to nearby houses and other buildings. This was implied (if not claimed) to be Russian "sabotage" by Ukrainian authorities, including President Petro Poroshenko and Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman.[2] In September 2021 the general prosecutor announced that evidence confirmed sabotage.[3]
