At night, the Kremlin's protege in the region, Alexander Gusev, warned the local population about the missile danger.

Against this background, reports of a fire at a thermal power plant began to spread.

In addition, it is noted that this is the largest supplier of thermal energy in Voronezh — the CHP provides heat to four districts of the city and over a thousand enterprises.

The Russian authorities claim that during the night their air defense allegedly shot down 43 UAVs over the territory of the Bryansk region, 1 over the Rostov region.
