Homel Region Attacked By Russian Drones: New Details

At least 12 drones were recorded.

On the night of 9 February, Russia massively attacked Ukraine with attack drones. Some of the drones flew into the territory of Belarus. ‘Flagshtok’ has collected available information about explosions over Homel region during this attack.

In total, at least 12 drones were recorded flying into Belarus during the Russian attack of Ukraine.

The first explosion was recorded in the south of Mazyr district at about 02:07. Observers heard the explosion southeast of Mazyr. The power supply to some people was interrupted for a second.

According to the Ukrainian Rynda Monitoring Channel, at about 01:54, a UAV flying towards Naroulia was recorded over the territory of Homel region. The signal from the drone was lost near the village of Barbarau (8 km from the Mazyr Oil Refinery). It can be assumed that the drone got into the range of the Russian air defence, located near the old Bolshoi Bokov airfield, and was shot down.

Strong muffled explosions scared the residents of the whole city of Homel. The sound was heard in all districts with an interval of 15-20 seconds at 03:26. Three strong explosions were heard in the south of the city. A Homel resident reported on social networks that he had witnessed the use of air defence forces against drones south of Homel. It's probably about the use of the Russian air defence forces, located in Zyabrovka.

The explosion also sounded over Khoiniki, at about 03:30. Currently, the Flagshtok editorial staff is collecting information about the incident.

The use of aviation by the Belarusian side has not been recorded.

The acting authorities of Belarus did not comment on the situation.

According to the official information of the Ukrainian Air Force, Russia launched 151 Shahed into Ukraine on the night of 9 February. The shooting down of 70 UAVs was confirmed. 74 imitator UAVs were locationally lost.
