Details: Fedorov said locals reported a large-scale fire near the Koloniia microdistrict.

Quote from Andriushchenko: "Berdiansk. An explosion and a beautiful cotton flowering. 

Apparently, in the vicinity of the port."

[Russian propaganda, initially refusing to use the word ‘vzryv’ (explosion), used ‘khlopok’ (a bang) instead. However, ‘khlopok’ also means ‘cotton’, and this has since become a meme – ed.]
