Explosions rock Moscow Oblast, Taganrog amid suspected drone attacks
Multiple Russian cities, including Taganrog in Rostov Oblast and suburbs of Moscow, experienced explosions overnight into Thursday, with Russian Telegram channels Shot and Mash attributing the blasts to drone attacks. Local air defenses were actively engaged, according to the reports.
In Taganrog, residents reported at least five explosions, with some accounts mentioning up to 15, accompanied by visible flashes in the sky.
In Moscow Oblast, explosions were heard in Zelenograd, Kommunarka, Krasnogorsk, Istra, and Nakhabino.
Neither Russia’s Ministry of Defense nor Ukrainian authorities, whom Russian sources accused, commented on the incidents.
In late May, Ukrainian drones targeted Zelenograd’s Elma technopark, which develops microelectronics, radio electronics, and optical instruments, causing significant damage, according to earlier reports.
