According to its data, 40 drones with low-altitude anti-ship missiles "Neptune" and unspecified ballistics were involved in the attack. Mash assumed that these were Storm Shadows, but these missiles are cruise missiles, not ballistic ones. Explosions were heard in Sevastopol and Balaklava.
It was probably air defense. According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, 25 drones were destroyed over Crimea and the Black Sea this morning. Sevastopol Governor Mikhail Razvozzhayev added that two missiles were also shot down.
Telegram Channel "Krymskiy Veter" noted that Sevastopol residents complained on social networks about the lack of air raid sirens during the attack. Razvozzhayev said that the signal is sent only if 20 drones are coming to the city. Today, according to him, there was no such risk.

The Rusavia plane was flying on the Ufa-Salavat-Ufa route for the purpose of aerial photography. There were three people on board: two pilots and a cameraman, However, the security of the Salavat oil refinery mistaken it for a drone and opened fire.

The dollar exchange rate on the international Forex currency market exceeded 114 ₽ at its peak today. This has not happened since March 2022. The euro exchange rate rose to 120 ₽.
The ruble is falling due to a shortage of foreign currency from exports, which, in turn, decreased under the impact of sanctions and falling oil prices. Forbes writes about this, citing experts. The situation was complicated by US sanctions against Gazprombank.
It was this bank that serviced a significant portion of export operations, in particular, payments for Russian gas. Sanctions against Gazprombank could lead to a reduction in the inflow of gas revenues into the country. At the same time, the authorities seem to be satisfied with the fall of the ruble.
Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said on Tuesday that the exchange rate is more important for exports than the key rate, and the current value of the dollar allegedly has a positive effect on companies selling goods abroad. He believes that the current ruble exchange rate promotes exports. Meanwhile, Volodin complained about a shortage of workers at factories.
We need as many professional workers as possible to enter the labor market. Look, our factories have started working around the clock. There is a huge shortage of personnel.
The State Duma speaker recalled the 80s, when there were five times more students in colleges. At the same time, he reminded the Minister of Labor that he is responsible for migrants. And, he said, it would be better, of course, to get by with our own personnel.
Residents of Chelyabinsk held a spontaneous rally. They demanded a meeting with Prosecutor General Igor Krasnov due to utility accidents. Two streets were left without heating and water in the cold.
The entire Trubnikov Street, the entire Energetikov Street, has been drowning in sewage up to the waist, up to the neck since July. This is still going on. Chelyabinsk media, citing residents, write that the houses have rusty pipes that may not survive the winter.
Some residents say they bought pumps to drain their flooded basements on their own, but the management companies ignore them. At a public meeting, people demanded a meeting with the Prosecutor General, since today he is working with his subordinates in Chelyabinsk. In the end, only the vice-mayor of the city, Alexander Astakhov, came to the meeting, and he said that the problems would be resolved in two more weeks.
The houses were left without heating the day before, but the breakdown itself occurred a month ago. Today in Chelyabinsk it is three degrees below zero. Utility accidents now occur daily.
Here is the governor of Perm Krai Dmitry Makhonin today apologized for utility accidents in the region. Several major breakdowns occurred in the north of the region. After the snowfall, residents of at least eight districts were left without electricity and water for more than a week.
That's 50,000 people. In some settlements, people had to melt snow, since there was no water supply. According to the official, the emergency condition of the pipes was the cause.
The prosecutor's office is currently investigating. A month before the accident, Makhonin said that there would be no repeat of last year's communal problems. And this is Rostov-on-Don.
Residents of a house on Belorusskaya Street show what the temperature is in their apartments. They have been living almost without heating for about a month. Utility workers claim that the problems are in the basement of the house, the fact of cold in the apartments has been officially confirmed.
But the issue is still not resolved. Also today there is no heating or electricity in several districts of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. Along with utility accidents in Russia, news about an increase in utility fees appears.
The rates will traditionally increase in July, but already now people sitting without heating can find out that, for example, in Krasnoyarsk Krai they will pay 17% more for housing and communal services. Considering that six months ago the rates already increased by 10%. In Kemerovo Oblast, housing and communal services will become almost 22% more expensive.
In Perm Krai, where the governor apologized for utility accidents today, the fee will increase by 21%, in Severnaya Ossetia by 19, in Mordovia and Tatarstan by almost 18. The small vessel "Boets" sank off the coast of Teriberka in the Barents Sea. There were nine tourists and a captain on board.
The group set out on a voyage despite a storm warning and a ban on small vessels entering the waters. The travelers were promised to be shown whales, although eyewitnesses report that they had not been seen in this area for about two months. The ship capsized, and all passengers and the captain were saved thanks to nearby boats.
Some of the tourists did not have life jackets. The Murmansk transport prosecutor's office has launched an investigation. The number of butter thefts has increased sharply in Russia.
About fifty criminal cases have been opened over the past week. They are taking several packs of butter at a time from stores all over the country: in Moscow, Moscow region, Tver, Simferopol, Petrozavodsk, Lipetsk, Syzran and other cities. Butter prices have increased by 23% since the beginning of the year, almost a quarter, from 876 to 1,021 ₽ per kilogram.
The Prosecutor General's Office stated that the price increase has no objective basis. "Stop killing, Stop the war! " A poster with the inscription was taken out by political prisoner Alexei Gorinov before the court session.
An FSIN officer tried to take the poster away, and then ordered it to be removed. Today, a trial began in the Vladimir region in a new case against a former Moscow uniform. In the summer of 2022, Alexey Gorinov was sentenced to seven years in prison for so-called "fakes" about the Russian army.
Now he is also accused of justifying terrorism. The lawyer Alena Savelyeva spoke about the state of health of the client. 63-year-old Gorinov is seriously ill, he has bronchitis, it is difficult for him to go to court.
In the summer, the politician's supporters complained about the conditions of his detention in the pretrial detention center. There is no mattress, no hot water, and the toilet does not work. There is a mouse in the cell with which Alexey shares cookies.
