Report on the individual targeted by the BPL assault in Voronezh, according to Gusev
In the early days of August 2025, the Voronezh region of Russia was the target of a Ukrainian drone strike. According to reports, four people were wounded in the attack, and a residential building in the village of Nova Ussman caught fire, causing significant damage.
The incident began with explosions heard over Voronezh, with more than 10 blasts and bright flashes reported by local residents. The roof of the building and nearby structures caught fire as a result of the attack. Several private homes and outbuildings were also affected, with several vehicles damaged.
Emergency services are currently at the crash sites of the drone attack, and a woman was injured by falling debris. The danger of drone attacks persists throughout the Voronezh region, with the threat of direct attack in Voronezh and the Liskinsky district remaining.
Russian authorities reported the strike and its casualties, but detailed damage assessments or investigation updates have not been publicly elaborated in the cited sources. No specific public details on the depth or progress of any investigation into the Voronezh drone strike have been disclosed in open sources as of August 2025.
