Quote: "On 10 August at 10:03, the invaders dropped a FAB-250 aerial bomb equipped with a UMPK guidance kit [which converts unguided bombs into precision-guided munitions] on the settlement of Bilenke in the Kramatorsk hromada. A 55-year-old local man sustained fatal injuries. Two women aged 56 and 75 were also injured. Fifteen residential properties were damaged. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]

At 11:10, Russian forces attacked Kramatorsk. This time, the enemy used a Molniya-2 UAV. The munition struck near an apartment building. Three civilians aged 26, 41 and 48 were injured.

At 11:45, the aggressor's state army attacked Druzhkivka, followed by an attack on Sloviansk at 15:40. The enemy used FPV drones in both attacks. Two women, both pensioners aged 71 and 62, were injured."

Pre-trial investigations have been launched under Article 438 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, which covers war crimes.
