A private residential building was also under attack, and a commercial and warehouse building was destroyed on the territory of a communal institution. In the Koryukiv district, the UAVs hit one of the enterprises and the territory of a private household. In the Nizhyn district, one of the infrastructure facilities came under enemy attack,” the message reads.

The Russian military regularly attacks Ukrainian regions with various types of weapons – attack UAVs, rockets, anti-aircraft missiles, and anti-aircraft missiles.

The leadership of Russia denies that the Russian army during a full-scale war inflicts targeted strikes on the civilian infrastructure of the cities and villages of Ukraine, killing the civilian population and destroying hospitals, schools, kindergartens, energy and water supply facilities.

The Ukrainian authorities and international organizations qualify these strikes as war crimes of the Russian Federation and emphasize that they are purposeful in nature.
