Berdiansk was captured by Russian troops during the large-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. The occupiers turned the city into their military base but did not protect their equipment or personnel bases from explosions.

On September 8, there were also explosions in Berdiansk. And on the night, powerful explosions rang out on the territory of the school, where Russian terrorists had placed a "polling station".
