On the night of October 9, the territory of the Volgograd region became the object of a massive drone attack. As a result, destruction and fires were recorded at infrastructure facilities.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is reported by Russian Telegram channels.<\/p>\n

According to reports, the first explosions occurred around 1 a.m. Kyiv time. The attack was later confirmed by the regional governor, Andriy Bocharov.<\/p>\n

According to him, the air defense forces of the Russian Armed Forces tried to repel a massive drone attack. As a result of falling debris in the Kotovsky district, a boiler house building was partially destroyed. Fires also broke out at some fuel and energy sector facilities.<\/p>\n

“Fire departments quickly arrived at the scene of the incidents and are working to eliminate the sources of the fire,” the head of the region said.<\/p>\n

Information about a fire at the LUKOIL-Korobkivskyi gas processing plant near Kotove has appeared on social media, citing eyewitnesses. However, there is currently no official confirmation of this information.<\/p>\n

Andriy Kovalenko, head of the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council, stressed that the affected facility plays a key role in Russia’s oil and gas infrastructure. According to him, the enterprise is engaged in the processing of gas condensate, its transportation, and the production of chemical raw materials.<\/p>\n

In addition, Kovalenko noted, this plant is an important link in the fuel supply system both for domestic consumption in the Russian Federation and for export needs.<\/p>\n

As a reminder, on Wednesday, October 8, a large-scale fire broke out in the Russian city of Novosibirsk at the “Solder Plant”, which works for the Russian defense industry.<\/a><\/p>\n

As reported, on Monday, October 6, two drones attacked an oil refinery in the Tyumen region of Russia, damaging a distillation column and part of the water supply system.<\/a><\/p>\n
