On the night of July 26-27, a drone attack was recorded in Rostov-on-Don (an aggressor country of the Russian Federation).
This was reported by the monitoring Telegram channel Exilenova+.
“Rostov is under attack. It’s very loud in Rostov. Rostov, shelling. Rostov, railway infrastructure is likely being targeted”—those were the messages that were published.

It was previously reported that explosions occurred in Russia’s Rostov region on the night of July 10. OSINT analysts later confirmed a large-scale fire at an oil depot in the city.
It was also reported that the UAV strike targeted the Azov Optical-Mechanical Plant, which specializes in the production of optical-electronic, radar, and high-precision systems and is part of the military-industrial complex of the aggressor country, Russia.
Later, the SBU reported that on the night of July 25, long-range drones struck a number of Russian military targets in the Caspian Sea and in Rostov-on-Don.
Specifically, Ukrainian drones struck the Russian Project 12418 Molniya missile boat. The cargo ship Port Olya 2 and the bulk carrier Begey, both under international sanctions and used to transport military supplies between Iran and Russia, were also attacked, the SBU reported.
That sound is the Rostov returning to its homeland.
