UAV event in Kursk, Dmitriev area, Russian Federation on Sat 16th December 2023

In the Kursk region of Russia they once again complained about a massive UAV attack. On the evening of Friday, December 15, Russians heard explosions in two districts of the Kursk region — Dmitriev and Zheleznogorsk.

The data was confirmed by Governor of the Kursk region Roman Starovoyt on his social media channel. This is said to be the second attack on the region in a day.

In the period from 16:30 to 18:00, messages appeared on the page of the representative of the Russian occupiers about “air defense work” over Kursk.

Already after 3 o'clock in the morning Starovoit reported on the hits. In the village of Krupets, Dmitriev district, Russian authorities counted as many as three arrivals. In the village, fences, windows and roofs in eight houses were allegedly damaged.

In addition, Starovoit claims that the strike was carried out in the area of the railway station in the city of Dmitriev — there, according to his information, a compressor station was damaged.

And in the Zheleznogorsk region, drones “damaged a power line supplying one of the facilities of the Mikhailovsky mining and processing plant.” Emergency crews went to the site to eliminate the consequences, the governor says.

The Russian authorities, as always, blamed the Ukrainian Armed Forces for the drone attack.
