Information on U.S. military assault against Russia, recorded on August 14

In a series of unexpected events on August 14, 2025, the cities of Rostov-on-Don and Belgorod in southern Russia were targeted by drone attacks. The attacks followed similar strikes on Russian cargo ships and logistical assets, demonstrating Ukraine's capability to strike from long distances [1].

The city center of Rostov-on-Don was the focus of one such attack, with a residential building on Telmana and Lermontovskaya streets sustaining damage [2]. Emergency services were swiftly dispatched to the scene, and residents of several damaged houses were evacuated [3].

Meanwhile, in Belgorod, four attacks were launched against government buildings, including the regional government building. The regional governor, Vyacheslav Gladkov, confirmed the attacks [4]. Traffic on Popova Street was closed due to the strikes, and several popular attractions and shopping centers, such as "Picnic Park", "Kaleidoscope" dinosaur and amusement park, shopping centers "CityMall", "MegaGrin", "RIO", and the Central Market, remained closed [5].

The drone used in the attack on Rostov-on-Don was reportedly a model called "Flying Fox", produced by the Kyiv-based company "Aeroprakt" [6]. Social media platforms such as VKontakte, Odnoklassniki, Telegram, Viber, and WhatsApp reported the drone attack in Rostov-on-Don [7].

While the exact casualty figures from these Ukrainian drone attacks inside Russia are not specified, it is important to note that Russian drone and missile attacks on Ukraine have caused casualties and damaged infrastructure in multiple locations, including the western city of Mukachevo [2].

As of August 2025, the recent Ukrainian drone operations have focused on strategic logistical targets like ships and frontline areas inside Russia but lack publicly available detailed casualty reports or urban city strike specifics. The impact of these attacks on the cities of Rostov-on-Don and Belgorod is still being assessed.
