Explosions were heard overnight between December 17 and 18 in Russia's Voronezh region. Local residents reported hearing blasts in the sky above the area, according to Russian Telegram channels.
Russians told the SHOT channel that around 4-6 explosions were heard. Preliminary information suggests that several airborne targets were reportedly shot down before the explosions. It is claimed that videos circulating online show the destruction of one of the drones.
"According to eyewitnesses, no fires or damage on the ground have been observed so far," the message stated.
SHOT also reminded readers of a statement by Voronezh region governor Alexander Gusev. Earlier, he reported that air defense forces had allegedly detected and destroyed a Ukrainian drone in one of the region's districts.
Additionally, Gusev claimed that there were no casualties or damage.
Notably, exactly one week ago, on the night of Wednesday, December 11, drones of Ukraine's Defense Intelligence and Defense Forces attacked a fuel and energy complex in Russia's Bryansk region. The attack resulted in damage to at least two tanks.
