The air defense forces repelled a drone attack in the Marinovka area of the Volgograd region. This was reported by the governor of Volgograd region, Andrey Bocharov.

“Last night, the air defense forces of the Ministry of Defense repelled a drone attack in the Marinovka area of the Volgograd region, and the majority of the unmanned aerial vehicles were eliminated. A fire broke out in the territory of the Ministry of Defense facility due to the falling drone. Fire and rescue services have promptly begun fire extinguishing operations.

It is worth noting that Ukrainian forces periodically shell Russian border areas using various means, including drones, specifically targeting Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk, and Voronezh regions.

Russia launched a military operation in Ukraine on February 24, 2022. President Vladimir Putin characterized it as “the protection of those people who have been subjected to mockery and genocide by the Kyiv regime for eight years.” He stated that the operation involves the demilitarization of Ukraine and bringing all military criminals responsible for bloody crimes against the peaceful residents of Donbas to justice. In response, Western countries have imposed extensive sanctions against Russia.
