Four people killed in Ukrainian drone attack in Russia’s Samara region, governor says
Four people were killed in a Ukrainian drone attack on an industrial facility in the Samara region on the morning of November 13, Samara Governor Vyacheslav Fedorishchev said.
There were also injuries, and the victims are receiving medical care, Fedorishchev said, without specifying how many were wounded.
Fedorishchev did not say which facility was struck. The Ukrainian monitoring channel Exilenova+ wrote that the target was the Samara linear production and dispatching station (LPDS).
The Samara linear production and dispatching station (LPDS) is a major oil infrastructure facility where oil from Tatarstan, Western Siberia, and other oil-producing regions of Russia is stored and pumped.
The station regularly becomes a target of Ukrainian strikes, the independent Telegram channel Astra notes. In October, the facility was attacked at least four times.
