Governor Andrei Bocharov reported that more than 50 drones were shot down overnight.

More than 40 explosions rocked the city overnight, according to eyewitnesses Residents reported bright flashes and a loud hum in the sky, which "shaked the walls and windows of apartments in some buildings." "By dawn, residents were still hearing isolated explosions—the last one occurred around 7:37 Moscow time in the Angarsk district of the city," Baza reported.

All residents are in shock and agitation over the events, discussing on social media that the sirens had not sounded again.

The damaged building on Garya Khokholova Street is located in the Evropeysky residential complex. "The school next door has become a temporary accommodation center. Everyone is in shock and worried about the events, discussing on social media that the sirens haven't sounded again. Some people are demanding sirens, others are demanding phone alerts, which have also been irregular lately. Someone said the alert came after the explosion in the Kirovsky district. There are no blockages, the damaged building is close to a main road, but it wasn't affected in any way. The school was initially deployed as a temporary accommodation center, but the residents whose apartments were damaged by the explosion—authorities report there were four such apartments—preferred to stay with friends, acquaintances, and relatives, so the accommodation center seems to have been abandoned," BFM quoted SotsInformBureau journalist Diana Egorova as saying.
