The first attack of Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) on an industrial facility was recorded in the Kirov region. According to a SHOT source, the target of the attack was the Zenit plant, located in the city of Kotelnich.

The first attack occurred around 10 am, when a kamikaze drone hit an empty tank with petroleum products on the territory of the plant. The explosion resulted in a fire, which was promptly contained by emergency services. About 40 minutes later, a second attack occurred: another kamikaze drone struck another tank on the territory of the enterprise, which also led to an explosion. Fortunately, there were no casualties as a result of these attacks.

Emergency services quickly arrived at the scene and began to eliminate the consequences. Work is underway to assess the damage and eliminate possible threats.
