Explosions were heard in Kursk during the night (video).

On the night of Thursday, December 12, explosions were heard in the Russian city of Kursk. The Russian Ministry of Defense announced that four drones were shot down over the region.

The agency reported an "Ukrainian" drone attack. According to their data, a total of 16 drones attacked Russian territory. In addition to the four drones shot down over Kursk, one was allegedly downed over the Chechen Republic, three over the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania, and eight over occupied Crimea.

Local Kursk communities are sharing videos of the explosions that occurred there overnight. They were quite powerful, triggering alarms in vehicles.

There was also information that air defense systems were active in the city of Zheleznogorsk, located in the Krasnoyarsk Krai of Russia. However, the Russian Ministry of Defense did not mention this region in its report.

It is worth noting that the attack on the special forces building in the city of Grozny (Chechnya) was successful last night. As reported by "Telegraph," this was confirmed by the head of the republic, Ramzan Kadyrov. He stated that a "small fire" broke out, and allegedly four fighters were injured. However, Russians always downplay their losses and damage. Community posts mentioned that five ambulances were used to transport the wounded.
