An overnight missile attack damaged an industrial facility and numerous cars in the southwestern Russian port of Taganrog, acting governor of the Rostov region said on Wednesday.



"According to preliminary information, no one was hurt," the acting governor, Yuri Slyusar, said on the Telegram messaging app.



Slyusar said 14 cars had caught fire, but he did not disclose details on what else was hit or how big the attack was.



After 1,000 days of the war in Ukraine, which Russia started with full-scale invasion in 2022, Kyiv used for the first time U.S. ATACMS missiles in November to strike into Russia, taking advantage of newly granted permission from the administration of outgoing U.S. President Joe Biden.



Days later, Russia fired a hypersonic intermediate-range ballistic missile at the Ukrainian city of Dnipro.
