The warehouses suffered extensive damage: roofs and storage bunkers were destroyed, making the buildings unusable.

"The scale of destruction is enormous – almost no property survived. Everything we have built over the years was wiped out in a single night," the company commented.

Early estimates place the company’s total losses at over UAH 60 million (about US$1.4 million).

The agricultural company cultivates 630 hectares of farmland and is one of the oblast’s key producers.

Background: Russian forces attacked the village of Vasyshcheve in the Kharkiv district with drones, causing a fire on the premises of two civilian businesses.
