The Armed Forces of Ukraine continue daily drone strikes in Russian rear regions. Most of Ukrainian drones are destroyed by Russian air defense forces but some of them reach their targets and inflict some damage to Russian rear infrastructure.
On the night of October 29th, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported that seven Ukrainian UAVs were intercepted and destroyed in the border Bryansk and Kursk region. One of them was destroyed by Russian air defense over the waters of the Black Sea.
During the day, Ukrainian strikes continued. At least three more UAVs were destroyed in the border Belgorod, Kursk regions and near the coast of the Crimean peninsula.

Unlike during the previous attacks, last night at least one of Ukrainian drones hit Russian rear. Ukrainian drone struck the roof of one of the buildings of the Russian University of Special Forces in Gudermes in Chechnya. According to the head of the region Ramzan Kadyrov the attacked building was empty, there were no casualties and no heavy damage.
This was the first attack in the region since the beginning of the Russian Special Military Operation in Ukraine. The investigation was launched into the incident to identify those involved in the attack and clarify the type of the drone. The official investigation is yet to confirmed if the drone was Ukrainian. Due to its destruction, it was not possible to establish its brand, but it is reportedly assumed that this was a Ukrainian UAV of the PD-2 aircraft type. The Russian Ministry of Defense did not report an attack on Chechnya, although Ukrainian drones may reach the region and the Ukrainian military launched drone strikes at a range exceeding 1300 km from the frontlines. The drone could be launched from the area of Odessa and, flying over the Black Sea and the Caucasus 1300 km, reach Gudermes. This was probably not the first drone launched by Kiev to Chechnya, but none of them reached the republic before due to Russian air defense.
The head of Chechnya vowed response. Commenting on today’s drone attack, Ramzan Kadyrov said that he had ordered the military commanders of the Chechen units not to take prisoners on the frontlines. According to him, Kiev wanted to intimidate Chechnya with this strike, but achieved the opposite result.
On the night of October 28th, Ukrainian drones also managed to inflict some damage in the Russian rear region of Voronezh. Two distilleries came under attacks. A fire broke out and two employees were wounded as a result of the drone strike in the Anninsky district and an outbuilding was damaged as a result of the strike in the Novohopersky district.

NATO patrons do not allow the Ukrainian military to launch strikes with their missiles on the Russian territory. That’s why the Kiev regime is using Western missiles to attack the regions it lost. On October 29th, NATO missiles targeted the industrial area in the city of Luhansk.
