The remaining drones were shot down outside the North Caucasus and Southern Federal Districts: in the Bryansk, Kaluga, Belgorod, and Kursk regions.

As a reminder, on January 14, an aerial attack in Rostov-on-Don caused fires in homes and an industrial facility. One person was killed and four, including a four-year-old child, were hospitalized with injuries. That day, the military reported 25 drones shot down in the region.

Three days later, residents complained that they were unable to retrieve their belongings from their apartments. Authorities explained that they were prevented from entering by citing the threat of a collapsed entrance.

On January 13, a woman was killed in an attack in Taganrog . Eight residential buildings, two industrial facilities, and six cars were also damaged. Authorities promised assistance to all victims.

Car damage has repeatedly appeared in reports on the consequences of drone attacks in the Rostov Region, but compensation for it was not provided until December 2025. Only after a Taganrog resident who lost his car asked about payments during a direct line with the governor did authorities establish a compensation procedure for car owners. The resolution provides for a payment of up to 500,000 rubles for a damaged vehicle and up to a million rubles for a destroyed one.
