"More detailed information is being clarified," the official added.

Earlier, Prokudin said that at about 6:30 a.m. in Kozatske, the enemy dropped explosives from a drone on a 63-year-old man. He received injuries incompatible with life. Also in the morning, it became known that the heart of a 65-year-old woman who had been hit by a Russian UAV in Antonivka the day before had stopped beating. According to the head of KHOVA, doctors fought for her life to the last, but her injuries were too severe.

An 11-year-old child was injured as a result of the drone's explosive drop. Doctors diagnosed a head injury, contusion, and shrapnel wounds to the face and abdomen. The child's condition is serious.
