Drones attacked the Novocherkassk power plant: the first details

On the night of March 25, a fire broke out at the transformer substation of the Novocherkassk State District Power Plant (SDPP).

According to the latest data, two SDPP power units have been temporarily decommissioned.

This information has already been officially confirmed by the governor of the Rostov region, Vasily Golubev.

Tonight, a fire broke out at the transformer substation of Novocherkassk SDPP, which was quickly extinguished by the station's workers. There are no casualties. Due to the fire, the 330 kV high-voltage lines — Tyhoretska and Rostovska — were automatically disconnected. At present, energy supply to consumers has been restored. Two SDPP power units have been temporarily decommissioned, Golubev said in a statement.

Drones probably attacked a large power plant in the south of Russia.

According to residents, they heard the sounds of drones flying over the region, at least 10 of them.

Later, loud explosions began to ring out in the area of the Novocherkassk SDPP.
