Fresh strikes hit Volgograd just 24 hours after arsenal attack - video

Explosions were heard across Volgograd and the neighboring city of Volzhsky.

In one district, drone debris fell onto a parking lot next to a high-rise residential building. Eyewitnesses reported a large-scale fire at the scene.

Airports in Volgograd, Saratov, and Penza have suspended operations due to the drone threat.

This attack follows a strike just 24 hours earlier, as overnight on Feb. 12, a series of powerful explosions rocked Volgograd Oblast, with reports indicating a missile strike and fire at a military arsenal in the village of Kotluban.

Governor Bocharov claimed that local air defense "repelled a missile attack" but admitted that "falling debris caused a fire at a Defense Ministry facility near Kotluban."
