• On the morning of October 29, a fire broke out at an oil refinery in Kuban. The suspected cause of the fire is a drone strike.
• Russian cities, especially those located close to the front, have been sometimes attacked by drones, presumably Ukrainian, in recent months. On October 19, it was reported that an air defense unit in the Rostov region destroyed an air target that was on the approach to the region.
• As a rule, Kiev does not comment on alleged airstrikes on the territory of Russia.
• At the beginning of May, major fires occurred at oil refining enterprises bordering Ukraine in the Krasnodar region and Rostov region after the drones arrived. Experts note that Ukraine has at its disposal modern unmanned aerial vehicles capable of penetrating deep into the country.
