A pensioner from the Volgograd region was fined 40,000 rubles and had his hunting rifle confiscated after attempting to shoot down drones flying over his courtyard. The man, identified as Nikolai Mukhin, reported the incident to emergency services and waited for the police. He was found guilty of a 'serious violation' that could have resulted in harm to citizens. This is likely the first such decision in Russia.
