On the night of 15 November, Russia’s Akhtubinsk military airfield in Astrakhan Region came under attack. Preliminary reports say at least 30 explosions were heard there.
This was reported by Exilenova+.
The airfield’s infrastructure, combat aircraft parking areas, ammunition depots and other facilities were targeted.
It is likely that, after the strike, an air defence ammunition load detonated.
Footage has also emerged of the Melentyevsky Bridge in Rostov Region after the overnight attack. It links the settlements of Nikolayevka and Andreyevo-Melentyevo.
The bridge is part of a diversion route with access to the R-280 highway towards Mariupol. It has been used since the Natalyevsky Bridge over the Mius River was damaged.
- It was previously reported that on the morning of 15 November, drones attacked the Nizhnekamskneftekhim petrochemical plant in the city of Nizhnekamsk, in Tatarstan. After the strike, a fire broke out on the plant’s premises.
