Points of attention

During the night and morning, military facilities in the Russian cities of Cheboksary, Engels, and Saratov came under Ukrainian attacks.
According to a Kremlin protege in the Saratov region, drone debris damaged individual buildings in Engels and Saratov.
Local residents of Engels complained on social media about loud explosions in the area of the military airfield.

According to the latest data, a large-scale fire broke out after this. Currently, mobile Internet outages are being recorded in the city.
