A man was killed and four others injured in a Ukrainian drone attack on the Russian city of Taganrog and surrounding areas, according to Rostov Region Governor Yuri Slyusar.

Axar.az reports that the governor said in a post on Telegram that the fatality was the chief engineer of an electrical substation. The four injured people – three men and a woman – were hurt when drone debris fell on their vehicles on a highway and at a petrol station. They were taken to hospital.

The attack also damaged a section of the R-280 highway bridge over railway tracks in Neklinovsky district, forcing its closure. Four cars were damaged.

In Taganrog, two electrical substations were damaged, one of which serves the railway network. Power lines between Taganrog-Passazhirsky and Mikhailovka stations were cut, suspending rail traffic. A fire broke out at one of the substations.

Slyusar said around 50 drones had been destroyed over Taganrog, Rostov-on-Don, and seven districts of the region during the overnight attack.
