Drone debris hits the roof of the hospital
The governor of the Rostov region, Vasily Golubev, said on his Telegram channel that the consequences of the attack on Taganrog are still being evaluated.

Independent media reported that the Ukrainian attacks in the Rostov region also targeted a Russian military aircraft factory. At first nothing was known about any damage there. In the Kursk region, the local governor said that the debris of a Ukrainian drone fell on the roof of a hospital. However, there were no injuries.

Military targets on the Russian side used to attack Ukraine will be destroyed. However, the damage and casualties are disproportionate to the consequences of the Russian attacks in Ukraine.
