Quote: "In the Seredyna-Buda hromada, a 29-year-old man was injured as a result of an enemy drone hitting a car. Medics are providing assistance.

In the Mykolaivka hromada, a Russian drone hit a minibus. The only person inside was the driver – he managed to get out of the vehicle before it was hit. The minibus burst into flames when it was struck. Fortunately, nobody was killed or injured."

Details: The transport operator that owned the minibus has suspended its services in the Mykolaivka hromada.

"The hromada has been in a mandatory evacuation zone for almost six months. Some people have left, but others have returned despite the constant threats," Hryhorov added.
