Quote from Zadorenko: "Two men, aged 50 and 51, were clearing debris from a roadside near a house from an earlier strike. At around 16:20, the Russians deliberately targeted them with an FPV drone. Sadly, both men died of their injuries instantly."

Details: At around 17:00, another FPV drone struck a house, causing a fire. No one was injured in this attack.

Zadorenko said the fire was still burning, as the threat of repeat strikes made it impossible to deploy firefighters to extinguish it.
