Following a drone attack attributed to Ukraine, Russia's Saratov regional airport lifted flight restrictions that had been imposed due to damage from falling debris. The incident occurred when Russia's air defense systems intercepted nine drones, resulting in serious injuries to a woman who is currently hospitalized. Regional governor Roman Basurgin reported the damage to a 38-storey residential complex, with emergency services deployed to assess the situation in Saratov and Engels, both significant cities in the region. Notably, Engels houses a strategic military bomber base that has been previously targeted by Ukrainian forces. Despite the incident, there has been no immediate response from Ukraine regarding the attack. Both Russia and Ukraine continue to deny targeting civilians, focusing instead on infrastructure related to their military operations.
