A resident of Sakhalin reported a disturbance in the parking area near his home. The information comes from a Telegram channel covering incidents, which notes the event in Sokol, a village within the Dolinsky district of Sakhalin. Around midnight, a man appeared from a nearby high-rise building carrying an object that resembled a shotgun. He began firing into the air, and the sound of gunshots combined with screams alerted people and mobile alarms from cars parked nearby. Despite the tense atmosphere, neighbors did not intervene or attempt to restrain him, and the scene drew immediate curiosity from residents who were unsure how to respond in the moment. This sequence of events prompted a swift police response as officers arrived on the scene to assess the situation and ensure public safety. According to official reporting, the man was later detained by law enforcement after officers determined that he was intoxicated. The firearm involved was described as legally registered, and no injuries were reported during the incident. It remains unclear whether any vehicles sustained damage as a result of the shots or the surrounding chaos.

In a separate update from the same region, authorities described an incident in Bavly, located in the Republic of Tatarstan. A passenger car, a VAZ-2107, entered a temporary cellular communications pavilion, prompting concerns about structural safety. The driver attempted to exit the vehicle, but the vehicle’s door was obstructed by parts of the pavilion’s framework. Reported information indicates that the driver was sober at the time of the accident, and emergency crews were dispatched to secure the area and assess any risk to bystanders or the facility. Investigations are expected to clarify the circumstances leading to the crash and to determine whether the pavilion and surrounding infrastructure sustained lasting damage.
