Explosions were heard in the Russian city of Maykop near a military airfield, with smoke and a glow visible over the area.

In the Russian city of Maikop, located in Adygea, a series of loud explosions occurred on the night of Saturday, December 7. The region was under attack by drones. Eyewitnesses reported thick smoke and flashes of fire immediately following the assault. The blasts were heard near the occupiers' military airfield "Khanskaya," and the Russians did not announce any threat of an airstrike.

Reports of the explosions in Maikop were shared by the Russian Telegram channel "Astra." It was noted that residents complained about the explosions in the Cheryomushki microdistrict. It is also known that drones targeted the military airfield "Khanskaya."

The Russians claimed that their air defense systems were operational and counted at least two explosions: the first over the city center and the other near the military airfield. However, the city authorities did not inform about any threat of an airstrike, so an air alert was not activated.

Russian propagandists also confirmed the attack on Maikop. According to their reports, drones struck in the area of the "Khanskaya" airfield, which is approximately six kilometers from the city.

Drone Attacks on Russia

The Russian Ministry of Defense stated that during the night and morning of December 2, Russian regions were once again attacked by Ukrainian drones. The Russian air defense allegedly destroyed 15 drones. UAVs were shot down over three regions and temporarily occupied Crimea. The highest number of drones was downed over the Kursk region.

On the morning of November 30, a drone group struck the city of Kaspiysk in Dagestan for the second time, where the enemy's flotilla is located. The first similar drone attack occurred in the summer, on July 6. As before, regional authorities claimed that the drone attack was unsuccessful, while the National Security and Defense Council emphasized that the drones traveled a distance of over a thousand kilometers for two reasons: the port in Kaspiysk is one of the enemy's key military bases, and it also serves as a logistical route for Iran to supply weapons to the Russians.

In the Rostov region, it was loud on the night of November 29. This Russian region was heavily attacked by drones. The oil depot "Atlas" was under attack near the city of Kamensk-Shakhtinsky. This facility has been targeted by drones before, as the oil depot is part of the Russian military-industrial complex that supplies fuel to the enemy army.
