More than 75 military prosecuted because of the explosions that occurred in ammunition depots over the past three years.. The Minister of Defense Stepan Poltorak told this in an interview to Channel 5.

According to him, as of 2014, most of the arsenals had to be closed due to funding problems, and restoring everything to the fullest is a lot of money..

However, there is another problem - after the layoffs and investigations, at present there is not only a lack of funds to protect sensitive sites, but also a shortage of personnel who would agree to take responsibility..

"After the events that took place here, starting from Svatovo, we changed a lot. And accountable. I brought 75 people to justice, including more than 20 generals. This led to another problem - now nobody wants to occupy these positions.. Why? Because there is no good financial resource.. In modern conditions it is very difficult to provide reliable security for the base of the arsenal ", - states Poltorak.
