The strike hit Semenivka
Semenivka is located near the state border with Russia. Due to its proximity to the border, the town and surrounding settlements are regularly subjected to Russian attacks. This time, Russian forces used an FPV drone and a “Molniya” unmanned aerial vehicle. The strikes damaged private homes and passenger cars. In addition to Semenivka, the Russians also struck other border areas of the Chernihiv region over the past 24 hours. In total, the region endured 21 enemy attacks.
The occupiers most frequently used drones. Of the 21 attacks, 14 were carried out by FPV drones. Local authorities and emergency services continue to monitor the situation in border communities. Due to regular attacks, residents of these areas are forced to constantly respond to new threats.
Russian strikes on the Chernihiv region continue despite the absence of a ground offensive in this area. Drones, artillery, and other weapons remain the main threats to border communities. This was reported on Telegram by Vyacheslav Chaus, head of the Chernihiv Regional Military Administration.
