Drones attacked the Russian cities of Rostov-on-Don and Primorsko-Akhtarsk on the night of Friday, July 5. The attack caused fires and damaged energy infrastructure. According to Russian telegram channels and local authorities, 10 drones were allegedly shot down over the Rostov region. There were no casualties reported, and investigations into the consequences are ongoing. The origin of the incident is currently being determined, with speculation that the drones may have targeted an oil transshipment terminal. However, there is no official confirmation of this information. Analysts from the Dnipro OSINT group suggest that the fire near Rostov-on-Don may have occurred at a Russian oil depot.

In addition to the attack in Rostov-on-Don, drones also targeted Primorsko-Akhtarsk in the Krasnodar Krai. Local authorities claim that the UAV was shot down by Russian air defense, but the wreckage damaged a local power substation, causing a power and water cut in part of the city. Repair and restoration work is underway in Primorsko-Akhtarsk, according to Veniamin Kondratiev, the governor of the region. Recent months have seen regular attacks on military facilities and oil infrastructure by unmanned aerial vehicles.
