Russia and Ukraine are once again carrying out mutual air attacks at night. Ukraine appears to have managed to hit a military facility.
According to media reports, Ukraine has hit an ammunition depot in the Voronezh region in drone attacks against Russia. The target was a warehouse near the small town of Ostrogozhsk, about 100 kilometers south of Voronezh, reported the independent Internet portal Astra. Although there is no official mention of an ammunition depot, Governor Alexander Gusev ordered the imposition of a state of emergency in three localities due to the “elimination of the consequences of a fire and the detonation of explosive objects.”
Two women were injured by the explosions, one of whom had to be hospitalized, he wrote on Telegram. 200 people had to be brought to safety. According to official reports, two people were also injured in drone attacks in the neighboring region of Belgorod.
The Russian Defense Ministry, on the other hand, only reported the shooting down of a total of seven drones, five over the Voronezh region and one each over Belgorod and Bryansk. The agency did not provide any information on subsequent damage.
On the other side, the Ukrainian military reported a massive Russian missile attack on the Snake Island in the Black Sea. Four X-22 cruise missiles hit the island. Glide bombs were also dropped over the Kherson region. There is no information about damage.
The Snake Island is considered strategically important for the control of the western Black Sea region. Russia conquered it in the first days of the war, but later had to vacate it again.
