Kuban authorities reported no injuries after the drone attack on the polling station.
A drone attack on a school gym in the Gulkievsky district, where a polling station was located, occurred at night before its opening. There are no casualties or injuries, authorities reported today.
As reported by "Caucasian Knot", the chairperson of the Central Election Commission, Ella Pamfilova, stated that one polling station in the Krasnodar region was moved to a backup location after the drone attack caused windows to be shattered in the building.
From September 18 to 20, elections for deputies of the State Duma of the IX convocation and municipal elections are taking place in the Krasnodar region. A total of 67 electoral campaigns are being held in the region: elections for deputies of the State Duma, eight campaigns for elections of deputies of representative bodies of municipal formations, and 58 campaigns for elections of heads of rural settlements. Voting is organized at 2872 polling stations, with more than 34 thousand election organizers involved, the Krasnodar regional election commission reported on its website. "Caucasian Knot" has gathered materials about the elections on the thematic page "Elections-2026: Where Will the Protest Go?"
Last night, due to a drone attack, the school gym in the Gulkievsky district, where the polling station was located, was damaged, the operational headquarters of the Krasnodar region reported on its Telegram channel.
"There are no damages to election documentation or technological equipment, and there are no injuries. The incident occurred before the polling stations opened," the message stated.
The election commission has been moved to a social institution located nearby on the same street. Voting is being conducted in the usual manner, the operational headquarters clarified.
According to "Caucasian Knot", residents of Kuban have repeatedly complained about problems with shelters from drones. For instance, on September 8, Krasnodar residents pointed out that some basements designated as shelters remain closed, and some rooms lack ventilation and safe exits. On May 4, residents of the Tuapse district criticized the list of shelters published by the authorities, stating that some of the indicated premises are closed or unsuitable for these purposes.
