The Russian defense ministry claims that all the drones were destroyed by air defense. The responsibility for the attack was traditionally blamed on Ukraine.
On the night of August 29, the territory of the Russian Federation was attacked twice by unmanned aerial vehicles. This was reported by the press service of the Russian Ministry of Defense on Telegram.
It is reported that at around 23.00, an “airplane-type UAV” attacked facilities in the Belgorod region of Russia. The agency claims that the drone was destroyed by air defense.
Later, at 05.53, the Russian Defense Ministry reported a second drone attack on Russian territory. This time, the Tula region was under attack. According to the ministry, the second drone was also shot down by air defense.
The Russian defense ministry claims that Ukraine is allegedly behind both attacks. No mention is made of casualties and destruction in the publications.
According to The Economist on August 28, Russian troops have created a continuous strip of electronic interference near the border, approximately 60 km wide, but Ukrainian drones still get through it and hit targets.
