An air raid alert was issued in Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast due to a military exercise

On August 4, an air raid alert was suddenly sounded in the Ivano-Frankivsk district. The Ukrainian Air Force later explained that the alert was triggered by a training target.

According to official information, the air raid siren sounded only in the Ivano-Frankivsk district.

Shortly thereafter, the Ukrainian Air Force clarified the reason for the alert.

“Ivano-Frankivsk region—training target,” the statement reads.

Thus, the air raid alert was related to a training target and not to a real threat of an air strike.

This was reported by Svitlana Onyshchuk, head of the Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Military Administration.

On Sunday, August 2, air raid sirens were sounded for the civilian population in eastern Romania for the second time that day. The country’s Ministry of Defense radar surveillance system detected an aerial target near the river border with Ukraine at 3:09 p.m.

In Poland, during a massive Russian missile attack on Ukraine on the night of July 29–30, an air raid alert was issued in part of the Lublin Voivodeship. After the alert ended, a crater approximately 10 meters in diameter and debris from an unidentified object were discovered in a field near the villages of Tarnava-Kolonia and Tokary.
