According to the authorities, an oil storage facility has caught fire in a new Ukrainian drone attack on the Russian region of Kursk. Three fuel tanks went up in flames. Dozens of firefighters are working to extinguish the blaze.

The Ministry of Defense in Moscow also once again reported several Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian territory, including the Kursk region. However, the military reports only ever report the flying objects shot down, not the hits or damage: 

Explosive device dropped on residential building
According to Smirnov, debris from a downed drone also hit a house in a village in the Kursk region, which then caught fire. No one was injured:

 In the small town of Sudscha, a Ukrainian flying object had dropped an explosive device on a residential building, a woman had been injured and taken to hospital. The previous day, Smirnov had already reported several injuries and damage to houses following drone attacks on numerous villages.

Kiev has Russia permanently in its sights
Ukraine is also firing at Russian targets on the territory of the neighboring state on a daily basis in order to stop military supplies. With Western aid, the country, which has been defending itself against the Russian war of aggression for more than two years, has significantly expanded its own production of drones. The damage and consequences of the strikes are disproportionate to the massive destruction and the number of fatalities caused by the Russian missile and drone attacks on Ukraine.
