Ukrainian drones allegedly hit Russian distilleries in border regions

Russian officials claim that Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) allegedly targeted several “civilian enterprises” in Voronezh and Belgorod oblasts overnight.

In the recent months, Ukraine intensified drone attacks on Russia, particularly on military targets in regions closer to the Ukrainian border. These strikes are aimed at disrupting Russian military supply lines and operations, damaging infrastructure, and raising the cost of war for Russia domestically.

Alexander Gusev, governor of Voronezh Oblast, located near Belgorod oblast which borders Ukraine, reported that Ukrainian UAVs attempted to attack several enterprises “producing civilian products”.
