- Work at an electronics factory in the republic of Chuvashia was briefly suspended Monday after Ukrainian drones crashed into the facility, local officials said.
“This morning, Ukrainian attempts to use drones in Chuvashia were detected,” regional head Oleg Nikolayev wrote on Telegram. “There were no victims from the attack.”
Two drones crashed on the grounds of the VNIIR plant, one of Russia’s largest producers of electronic components, according to Nikolayev. Production was temporarily suspended “to ensure the safety of employees,” he added.
Nikolayev said two other drones fell into nearby fields but did not pose a threat to civilians. “The situation is entirely under control,” he wrote.
