Quote: "The Kostiantynivka hromada suffers daily from brutal strikes by Russian occupiers. The enemy continues to use a tactic of targeted hunting of people, employing strike FPV drones in residential areas of the city. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]

One civilian was killed as a result of a hit by an enemy fibre-optic drone. His life was cut short instantly by the aggressor's targeted strike."

Details: According to Horbunov, two more people sustained injuries of varying severity.

"Those who were injured were promptly taken to the Druzhkivka city hospital, where they are currently receiving all necessary medical care," he said.

Horbunov added that at the time of the attack, the people were engaged in evacuating others from dangerous areas. It was another evacuation mission aimed at saving the lives of residents of the hromada.

A passenger car belonging to the public organisation Kramatorsk Association of Volunteers also came under Russian fire. The vehicle had been used daily to evacuate civilians from the most dangerous areas.

No damage to residential buildings was recorded as a result of the strike.

Law enforcement agencies continue to document crimes committed by the Russian Federation.
