Kostroma GRES Power Plant Damaged in Ukrainian Drone Attack
On November 6, a drone attack caused explosions and a fire at the Kostroma State District Power Plant (GRES), one of Russia’s largest energy facilities, located in the Kostroma region. Despite the regional governor claiming that Russian air defenses repelled the attack, residents reported multiple explosions and visible flames. The plant, which supplies electricity to much of central Russia, has a significant installed capacity and a very tall smokestack. Also on November 6, Ukrainian forces conducted a successful strike on a Shahed drone storage and launch complex at the occupied Donetsk airport.
