The governor of the Briansk region, Alexander Bogomaz, said that “13 Ukrainian drones were allegedly shot down over the region,” and then four more drones were shot down. There were no casualties. In the morning, he added that “while repelling the attack, one of the drones crashed into a non-residential building.”
In total, according to the Russian Defense Ministry, 16 unmanned aerial vehicles were destroyed and intercepted by air defense systems over Russia overnight – they attacked the Briansk, Rostov and Belgorod regions of Russia.
