RUSSIA – An overnight Ukrainian drone attack targeting the Russian Baltic Sea port of Ust-Luga resulted into fire, according to authorities on Wednesday.

Aleksandr Drozdenko, the governor of the country’s northwestern Leningrad region, said on Telegram that a total of 56 drones were shot down in the region after an air alert sounded overnight.

The fire is being extinguished, Drozdenko said, adding that the roof of a residential building was damaged in the town of Vyborg.
