The Aleksinsky Chemical Plant, which specializes in the production of gunpowder, was seriously damaged during a nighttime drone attack on a chemical plant in Russia’s Tula region. The plant was attacked by at least 13 drones, causing significant damage and a fire.
The company’s personnel were urgently evacuated. OBOZ.UA was informed about this by its own sources.
“At least 13 drones flew into the chemical plant at night. The key target, the gunpowder production facility, is now smoking orange due to acid emissions,” the source said.
At 13:10, a second explosion occurred at the facility, which caused chemical materials to ignite, and the plant was shut down. Workers were quickly evacuated.
In addition, damage to the Aleksinskaya Thermal Power Plant, where a 110 kV high-voltage power line was damaged, was confirmed.
Earlier it became known that on the night of Saturday, November 9, SBU and SSO drones struck the Aleksinsky Chemical Plant in the Tula region of Russia, which is an important facility of the Russian military-industrial complex (MIC). The enterprise, which is part of the Rostec corporation, produces ammunition, ashes and other materials for the needs of the Russian army.
According to a source in the SBU, such attacks are part of a strategy to hit targets supporting Russia’s war against Ukraine. Strikes at warehouses, military bases and manufacturing facilities serving the Russian army significantly reduce Russia’s ability to carry out further military actions.
It is worth noting that the local authorities have not officially acknowledged the plant’s defeat: the governor of the Tula region, Dmitry Milyaev, insists that it all ended with a broken window in one of the private homes.
Let us recall that on the night of November 8, in the Russian city of Saratov, the Main Intelligence Directorate carried out a special operation, attacking a local oil refinery. It is known that drones hit the oil refinery and tanks.

Cool! Not only a fire, but acid smoke. Just the right thing for mafia land!
