Russian officials said Tuesday that debris from a destroyed Ukrainian drone fell on an oil facility in the Smolensk region, causing a fire.
The Russian defense ministry said it shot down a total of 68 Ukrainian drones overnight, including 10 over Smolensk.
Intercepts also took place over the Bryansk, Crimea, Krasnodar, Tver, Rostov, Kursk and Kaluga regions, the ministry said.
There were no other reports of damage or casualties from the attacks.
Meanwhile, Ukraine’s air defenses worked to defend against Russian missile attacks Tuesday in Kyiv.
Serhii Popko, head of Kyiv’s City Military Administration, said debris from a falling missile landed on a building but did not cause any damage.
In the Sumy region in northeastern Ukraine, officials said a missile attack targeted infrastructure sites in the town of Shostka.
