Vladivostok Explosions: Gas Cylinder Blamed, No Casualties Reported

Two explosions rocked Vladivostok on May 30th, 2025, causing initial alarm and speculation about a possible Ukrainian connection. Footage from the scene showed emergency vehicles responding to the incident and a cordoned-off area. The explosions occurred near Desantnaya Bay. Russian media initially highlighted a theory circulating in Ukrainian media suggesting a successful GUR operation. However, this claim lacked supporting evidence. Later, the Primorsky Krai government confirmed a gas cylinder explosion in a vehicle as the cause. "In the incident, there were no victims," stated a representative from the Primorsky Krai government, confirming the official report. The quick response of emergency services and the absence of casualties offer a positive conclusion to this event.
