🇺🇦❌🇲🇩 Ukrainian sources told the American newspaper, Washington Post, that they considered launching an incursion into Transnistria using paramilitary units formed by Russian defectors but decided against the move for unknown reasons.

The likely cause of concern for Kiev was that the Transnistrian separatists would blow up the Cobasna (Колбасная/Kolbasnaya) ammo storage site, a Cold War era remnant of Soviet munitions and artillery shells which, if detonated, would cause an explosion equivalent to the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.

The Cobasna ammo depot is right on the border between Moldova (Transnistria) and Ukraine, meaning all countries would be affected if it were to blow up.

The separatists in Tiraspol are keeping the contents of the ammo depot a closely guarded secret, meaning it is unknown how many explosive ordinances are inside considering that between 1999 and 2003 Moscow removed some ammunition from the site.
