According to him, despite the concentration of air and missile defense systems around the Russian capital, the attack still reached its target.

Meanwhile, an oil depot in the village of Poltavskaya, Krasnodar Krai, caught fire after a drone attack. Russian authorities said the fire was caused by debris from a drone falling onto the facility. 32 rescuers and seven pieces of equipment were involved in extinguishing the fire.
