Ukraine has reportedly launched a series of drone attacks on Russia, targeting the country's energy infrastructure. The Defense Ministry in Moscow confirmed that fifty drones were intercepted by Russian air defenses across eight regions, with the majority being shot down over the Belgorod region near the Ukrainian border. Tragically, two individuals lost their lives during the attacks, with a woman sustaining a broken leg and a man perishing in a fire that engulfed their home.
Reports indicate that the drone strikes extended beyond Belgorod, reaching regions such as Bryansk, Kursk, Tula, Smolensk, Ryazan, Kaluga, and Moscow. The attacks appeared to focus on critical energy facilities, with fires breaking out at an electrical substation in Kaluga and fuel and energy complexes in Bryansk and Smolensk.
