The statement also mentioned that Ukrainian drones were downed in the Bryansk, Lipetsk, Oryol, Voronezh, and Kursk regions, with one drone reportedly intercepted over the Sea of Azov. Tambov Governor Maksim Yegorov reported via Telegram that a drone had landed in the Michurinsky district, igniting a fire that was subsequently extinguished. Separately, Vyacheslav Gladkov, the governor of Russia's Belgorod oblast, noted that a woman was injured in a drone attack on the village of Varvarovka, situated about 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) from the Ukrainian border. In contrast, Ukraine's Air Force claimed that its air defenses shot down 41 out of 80 drones launched by Russia, with interceptions reported over various regions including Odesa, Mykolaiv, Kherson, Kyiv, Sumy, Kirovohrad, Cherkasy, Zhytomyr, Khmelnytskyi, and Chernihiv.

In the Sumy border region, local military officials reported a drone attack targeting energy infrastructure in the Romny district. "All necessary services are working on site. The consequences of the enemy attack are being clarified," the statement read.
