According to information from Moscow, Ukraine attacked Russia with dozens of drones at night. As a result, according to the governor, there are power outages in the Morozovsk district. Residents also report explosions at a military airfield.
According to official reports, Russia’s border region was attacked by dozens of Ukrainian drones during the night. The Russian Defense Ministry announced this morning that its own airspace defense intercepted a total of 53 missiles, 44 of which were in the Rostov region.
Rostov Governor Vasily Golubev, in turn, reported a “massive drone attack” that hit an administrative district called Morozovsk. Because a substation was damaged, some residents remained without power for the time being, he wrote.
Independent media pointed out that there is a military airfield in the Morozovsk district. Footage of fireballs in the sky was also shared in Telegram channels and residents were quoted as reporting the sounds of explosions.
Russia, which has been waging a war of aggression against neighboring Ukraine for more than two years, is increasingly coming under fire, particularly in the border area. Military infrastructure is often the target of such attacks. The number of victims and damage are disproportionate to the consequences of the war in the attacked Ukraine.
