A drone attack has caused a fire at the airfield in the Russian city of Kursk, which is located near the Ukrainian border, although without causing casualties.

This was reported by the governor of the Kursk region, Roman Starovoit, who detailed that the intelligence agencies are on site investigating what happened.

«As a result of a drone attack, an oil storage tank caught fire in the area of the Kursk airfield. There were no casualties. The fire is localized. All intelligence agencies are on the scene,» Starovoit remonstrated in a statement on Telegram.

The news of the fire comes a day after at least three people were killed and five others injured in an explosion at an airfield in the vicinity of the Russian city of Ryazan, located about 200 kilometers from the capital, Moscow.

Another explosion was also reported at the Saratov airfield, with no casualties reported.
