According to local authorities, the impact of a kamikaze drone led to a fire in a city warehouse. A camp employee was killed, whose body was recovered from the rubble of the building by helpers. One person was slightly injured and another person was seriously injured. Lviv is located approximately 80 kilometers by car east of the border with NATO and EU state Poland.
A total of 15 of the 18 kamikaze drones were shot down as they approached the Lviv region, the regional military government wrote on Telegram. The rest hit various warehouses in the city. According to the UN coordinator in Ukraine, Denise Brown, the subsequent fire at the warehouse of a non-governmental organization destroyed approximately 300 tons of aid supplies. Brown emphasized that humanitarian supplies and goods are protected by international law.
Other parts of Ukraine also reported Russian attacks – according to the military government, ten Iranian-designed ‘Shahed-136/131’ drones were shot down over the southern Ukrainian region of Mykolaiv alone at dawn. In the southern city of Krivyi Rih, a drone hit a multi-storey residential building, causing a fire, according to authorities. Another drone was shot down.
In total, the Russian army used thirty kamikaze drones and an ‘Iskander-M’ missile during the night, the Ukrainian air force announced on Telegram. 27 drones were shot down. The attacks are said to have been launched – as the day before – from the western shore of the Sea of Azov and from the Crimean peninsula, which was annexed by Russia in 2014 in violation of international law. The information provided by the warring parties often cannot be independently confirmed.
Ukraine has been defending a Russian invasion with Western support for more than a year and a half.
