Ukraine has launched many drone attacks on Russia, and there are rumors that a nuclear power plant might have been targeted.
More than 500 drone attacks have occurred during the Russia-Ukraine war, with various parts of Russia being targeted.
Governor Roman Starovoyt said that two unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) crashed into a building in Kurchatov, located in the Kursk region. This region is also where a nuclear plant is situated.
He said that investigators are at the location to check how much damage happened, but he did not say if there was any damage to the nuclear plant.
A video showed a big explosion in the night sky over Pskov in northern Russia. Pskov was already in a bad situation because of an attack earlier this week. Two transport planes were destroyed and two more were seriously damaged.
Moscow had more problems with the airports closing again because of a claim that a drone was shot down over the suburb of Lyubertsy.
There was smoke in the area and big airports stopped flights for over two hours.
“Zelenskiy, Ukraine’s leader, told a big group of people in Copenhagen that Russia will not win this war. ”
Today, the air defense forces near Lyubertsy stopped another try to fly a small flying robot to Moscow, according to the city’s mayor Sergey Sobyanin.
The recent drone attacks show that Ukraine is now better able to attack Russia.
Pskov is about 500 miles away from the closest Ukrainian land. People believed that drones were being flown by groups opposed to war who were working together with Ukrainian secret services and operating in Putin’s country.
But Volodymyr Zelensky said this week that Ukraine now has the ability to launch long-range attacks inside Russia.
Ukraine also showed a video of an experiment that demonstrated the explosive power of their new cardboard drones.
The drones were sent to attack Kursk at the Khalino military airfield before, and they might have been used in other attacks as Kyiv increases its focus on targeting Russian territory.
A spokesperson from the Ukrainian military stated that they have information suggesting that these types of drones cannot be seen on radar by the enemy.
The test results revealed that after the explosion, the objects that caused the explosion spread over a wide area. This area was big enough to cause damage to even a big airplane.
Kyiv says that in Kursk, 16 of its drones broke 4 Su-30 fighter jets, 1 MiG-29 fighter jet, 2 Pantsir-S1 air defense systems, and a radar connected to a long-range S-300 missile system.
