A drone incident in Bryansk region prompts air defense response
The Ukrainian Armed Forces attempted to strike targets in the Surazhsky district of the Bryansk region using a drone, but air defense forces intercepted the threat and neutralized it. Regional Governor Alexander Bogomaz shared the update in his report on his Telegram channel. The governor noted that no one was hurt and there was no property damage as a result of the attempted attack. Emergency services and operational teams are on the scene to assess the situation and ensure safety for residents.
Bogomaz expressed appreciation for the work of the air defense units, emphasizing the importance of rapid detection and interception in preventing harm to civilians and infrastructure. His update reflects the ongoing vigilance of regional authorities in monitoring cross-border security incidents and coordinating with military and emergency responders.
Earlier in the day, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported that the Russian army again thwarted a Ukrainian attempt to carry out a terrorist-style attack in the Bryansk region using aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicles. Mission air defense systems reportedly shot down three enemy UAVs in the morning, with a third drone eliminated over the Bryansk region. The statement underscores the persistent threat posed by drone-enabled attacks and the need for constant readiness across regional defense networks.

In related developments, authorities have announced the creation of a new drone suppression system in Russia, aimed at enhancing capabilities to detect and neutralize unmanned aircraft at varying altitudes and ranges. This initiative reflects ongoing efforts to strengthen regional security and mitigate risks associated with unmanned threats in border areas.
