Russia once again strikes civilian cars and ambulance, causing deaths and injuries
On Wednesday, Russian troops used drones to target civilian cars and an ambulance in the Kherson and Donetsk oblasts, resulting in deaths and injuries, according to Ukraine’s Ministry of Internal Affairs, State Emergency Service, and regional prosecutors.
Around 8:00 a.m., Russian forces struck a civilian car on the Novoraisk-Kostyrka highway in Kherson Oblast’s Beryslav district with a drone-dropped explosive.
A man was killed instantly, and rescuers extracted a woman from the vehicle, but she died en route to the hospital.
While Ukrainian law enforcement conducted the evacuation, Russian forces launched a follow-up strike, wounding three police officers.
A nearby ambulance was also hit, sparking a fire that firefighters later extinguished.
In Donetsk Oblast, a Russian drone struck a car carrying three people, causing it to veer into a ditch. Police rescued two men, while rescuers extricated a third and handed him over to medics for treatment.
