Drones struck two sites in Russia overnight on 23 October. One is a data center, one of two that the country's tax service depends on. The other is a chemical plant that supplies materials to explosives manufacturers. The strikes came during Russia's war against Ukraine.

The data center is in Gorodets. It stores state registers, including tax records. It opened in 2015, and Russia's current prime minister attended the opening.

The available source text does not say what damage was caused, who carried out the attacks, or how the operations of the sites were affected. The source provides no such information at this point.
