The drone attack caused a fire in the occupied city.

In addition, according to Andriushchenko, due to the operation of Russian electronic warfare systems, a drone struck a high-rise residential building on Intercultural Street (formerly Dzerzhinskaya Street).

Prior to this, drones attacked Krasnodar and caused a fire at a warehouse

Earlier, warehouses caught fire in Akulovo, near Moscow.

It is worth noting that Ukrainian Armed Forces drones reached the Arkhangelsk region—located approximately 1,900 km from the border with Ukraine—for the first time. Their target may have been the Plesetsk Cosmodrome, Russia’s only active military spaceport.

Robert Brovdi (call sign “Madyar”), commander of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ Unmanned Systems Forces, reported on August 23 on the results of operations against Russian terrorist targets.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces carried out localized counterattacks and advanced in several sectors of the front. According to the Institute for the Study of War, Ukrainian forces halted the Russian advance in the Kozacha Lopan area and also achieved successes near Kostiantynivka and in the Zaporizhzhia region.
