Russia claims UAV attacks in three oblasts at night

Russian authorities in Krasnodar Krai, Bryansk Oblast, and Rostov Oblast claimed drone attacks and air defense operations during the night of 9 October.

Veniamin Kondratiev, governor of Krasnodar Krai, said debris from a drone shattered windows in a private residence in the village of Shabelskoye and damaged a gas pipe. No one was reportedly injured.

In Bryansk Oblast, Governor Alexander Bogomaz claimed that Russian air defenses destroyed 12 drones.

Rostov Oblast Governor Vasily Golubev said that 10 Ukrainian UAVs were shot down over the oblast overnight.

According to Golubev, ten fixed-wing drones were destroyed, including one in the Novoshakhtinsk area and nine in the southwest of the oblast. He added that debris falling in the Kagalnitsky district caused a landscape fire, which was promptly extinguished.

Since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine began, combat drones have regularly entered Russian regions, resulting in destruction and casualties.

The Russian Ministry of Defense maintains that these attacks originate from Ukraine, though Kyiv typically does not comment on such reports.
