Drone attacks on Grozny
In the early hours of December 12, combat drones targeted the building of the Second Regiment of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Grozny.
Chechen President Ramzan Kadyrov claimed that air defense systems allegedly shot down the drones, but falling debris caused a fire in the building. He accused Ukraine of the attack and vowed retaliation.
