On the night of April 17, 2025, the city of Shuya in the Ivanovo region of Russia was hit by another attack by Ukrainian drones, causing fire and smoke. Videos circulating on social media show bright flashes, columns of smoke and a glow, indicating serious consequences of the strikes. Local residents report several explosions that woke the city and sowed panic. There is no official comment from the Russian Defense Ministry on this matter yet.

Tensions are rising in Shuya: this is the second airstrike in the last 16 hours. The first attack took place on the morning of April XNUMX, when, according to the Russian Defense Ministry, air defense forces shot down seven Ukrainian drones over the Ivanovo region. Local residents then reported explosions and fires in the area of ​​military facilities, and emergency vehicles were seen on the city streets. The authorities called on the population to remain calm, temporarily restricting traffic on General Belov Street, where the drone debris presumably fell. The current attack, judging by the footage, was no less intense, increasing anxiety among city residents.
