Drone attack threat declared in Novorossiysk

The Novorossiysk authorities warned residents about the threat of drone attacks in the city.

As "Kavkazsky Uzel" wrote, on the night of August 31, air defense systems on duty disarmed 21 unmanned aerial vehicles over Russian regions. Of these, 19 were shot down in the south.

"When the sirens are turned on - the "Attention everyone" signal: if you are at home - do not go near the windows. Take cover in a room whose windows do not face the sea or in rooms without windows with solid walls (hallway, bathroom, toilet, storage room). If you are outside - take cover in the basement of the nearest building or in an underground passage (parking lot)," - the head of the city Andrei Kravchenko wrote in his Telegram channel at 22.58 Moscow time on August 31.

The authorities emphasize that you cannot use a car for cover or hide under the walls of apartment buildings. Kravchenko called on residents and visitors of Novorossiysk to remain calm and wait for the signal to be cancelled.

Recall that on August 10, in the village of Natukhaevskaya in Novorossiysk, the wreckage of a UAV fell on a vacant lot. There were no casualties or damage, but the fall caused a fire in the dry grass.
