Monitoring sources reported several fires in the city, including at the military airfield and near the military town. Separately, there were reports of a fire in the area of the former Taganrog Motor Vehicle Plant, where the production of drones for the Russian army had previously been documented. The extent of the damage is being assessed.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\"><strong>Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Several fires were reported in Taganrog overnight.<\/li>\n<li>According to monitoring sources, a military airfield was under attack.<\/li>\n<li>A fire was also reported near the military town.<\/li>\n<li>Another fire was reported in the area of the former TagAZ.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2 class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\" data-section-id=\"1vrxrky\" data-start=\"962\" data-end=\"1021\">Fires broke out at the airfield and near the military town<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1023\" data-end=\"1308\">Monitoring channel <strong>Exilenova+<\/strong> Overnight, he posted several videos from Taganrog showing at least two separate fires. At around 04:00, the channel reported that the following were under attack: <strong data-start=\"1195\" data-end=\"1228\">airfield and military town<\/strong>, where the fire was still burning at that time.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1310\" data-end=\"1484\">Earlier that same night, the channel reported several fires in various parts of the city and broadcast footage of two separate blazes.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1486\" data-end=\"1680\">As of the morning of 12 September, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine had not provided specific details regarding the consequences of this particular night-time attack on <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/world\/ataka-bpla-v-taganrozi-evakuatsiya\/\">Taganrog<\/a>, so the exact list of affected sites and the extent of the damage have yet to be confirmed.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1oa66jm\" data-start=\"1682\" data-end=\"1736\">A fire has also been reported in the area of the Taganrog car factory<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1738\" data-end=\"1855\">Some OSINT sources and local public groups point to the area of the former <strong data-start=\"1807\" data-end=\"1854\">The Taganrog Motor Plant \u2014 TagAZ<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1857\" data-end=\"2174\">This site has come under the spotlight on more than one occasion due to its military production activities. Previously, OSINT analysts reported that the \u00abAtlant Aero\u00bb company operates on the site of the former car factory, producing \u00abMolniya\u00bb strike and reconnaissance UAVs and components for \u00abOrion\u00bb drones.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2176\" data-end=\"2374\">In April 2026, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine had already officially reported that the \u00ab<a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/world\/udar-po-zavodu-bpla-atlant-aero-v-tahanrozi\/\">Atlant Aero<\/a>\u00bb in Taganrog and a fire in the area around its production buildings.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"4aev3z\" data-start=\"2376\" data-end=\"2431\">The Taganrog airfield was attacked a few days ago<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2433\" data-end=\"2503\">Taganrog has been the target of Ukrainian attacks on several occasions in recent days.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2505\" data-end=\"2823\">On the night of 7 September, drones attacked a military airfield <strong data-start=\"2563\" data-end=\"2589\">\u00abTaganrog-Central\u00bb<\/strong>. NASA FIRMS data then detected a fire in the aircraft parking area. This airbase is home to the 325th Aircraft Repair Plant, which carries out repairs on transport aircraft and components for the Il-76.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2825\" data-end=\"3002\">Subsequent analysis of satellite imagery revealed that the strike may have destroyed one Russian Mi-8 helicopter and damaged an Mi-35.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3004\" data-end=\"3174\">In addition, on 11 September, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine confirmed that a target had been struck in the Taganrog area <strong data-start=\"3077\" data-end=\"3135\">two \u00abPantsir-S1\u00bb anti-aircraft
