The Severomorsk-1 military aerodrome is located nearby.

Explosions have occurred in Murmansk region of Russia in the area where the base of the Northern fleet of the Russian Federation is located.

This is reported by Censor.net.

Residents of Murmansk and Severomorsk, located 12 km from it, wrote in the evening on Wednesday on social networks about two powerful explosions, waves from which people felt at a distance of several dozen kilometres. One of the explosions was caught on video.

The Norwegian publication of The Barents Observer notes that 13 kilometres away from the scene is the Severomorsk-1 military airfield, where fighter jets, bombers and squadrons of Ka-27 helicopters are based. There is an open arms depot 11 kilometres away, and a number of installations with mobile anti-aircraft missiles and electronic warfare antennas are located northwest of Severomorsk-1. In addition, the closed military airfield of Severomorsk-2, which began to be restored in early 2024, is located between Severomorsk and Murmansk.
