Other Russian regions were hit as well.

On November 23, an “explosive situation” developed in the Kursk region. A flock of American missiles carried out terror attacks on Russian facilities. This was reported by Focus and RBC-Ukraine, citing statements by Russian governors and information on Russian social media.

“ATACMS have struck the Kursk region. About 6 missiles. Air defense is in operation. The threats of “Pypa” (as Russians call Russian President V. Putin — ed.) did not work. After all, no one could have imagined it,” the blogger wrote.

Online, Russians are writing about a missile attack and reporting a raid by about 10 ATACMS. The network also reported, citing residents of the Kursk region, that explosions were heard in the cities of Kursk and Kurchatov.

A photo of a probable ATACMS hit on a facility in the Kursk region also appeared on social media.

Local authorities had been reporting the alleged threat of missile strikes since the evening before. Then the work of the air defense was announced.

Later, the governor of the Kursk region at least twice announced the end of the danger of a missile attack, then claiming the threat reappeared.

In addition, he also spoke about the danger of attacks using drones in the region.

Already at night, a Russian official reported on the alleged downing of two missiles and 27 drones by air defense systems in the Kursk region. And he called on local residents “not to approach the wreckage”. It is important to note that these missiles and UAVs, according to him, were Ukrainian.

The Lipetsk region

In this Russian region, local authorities also announced the danger of an air attack on Saturday evening.

“Attention! An air danger regime is being introduced throughout the Lipetsk region.” “Attention! There is a threat of a UAV attack on the territory of the city of Lipetsk and the Lipetsk MO,” the Lipetsk governor said in a statement at 21:40 and 00:25, respectively.

At the same time, Lipetsk Telegram channels wrote about the sounds of explosions and the work of air defense due to the drone attack.
