Local authorities first declared a missile threat twice, and then reported a drone attack and air defence work. Smirnov said that 26 Ukrainian attack drones were shot down.
We remind you, Ukraine regularly attacks the military and energy infrastructure of the aggressor country.
At the end of July there was one of the record attacks - the AFU hit the Russian "Olenya" airfield, which is located at a distance of 1800 km from Ukraine in Murmansk region. The Main Intelligence Directorate said that these strikes were very sensitive for the Russians.
"Indeed, these are very sensitive strikes for the enemy. And given that the planes were taken away for repair work so quickly - these were working planes that were directly involved in strikes on Ukraine. This is good news for our country," said Andriy Yusov, a spokesman for the Ukrainian Defence Ministry's Main Intelligence Directorate.
One of the latest attacks took place on the night of August 3. Defence forces struck the Morozovsk airfield in Russia's Rostov Region. A hit on ammunition depots where guided aerial bombs were stored was recorded.
