On Tuesday, 17 March, Russian forces attacked the city of Kostiantynivka in Donetsk region using an FPV drone. The strike hit a residential building directly, causing damage to the facade.
This was reported by Serhiy Horbunov, head of the Kostiantynivka city military administration.

Horbunov stated that the security situation in the community remains extremely tense. “The enemy’s use of unmanned aerial vehicles makes being outdoors and inside private houses near the front line life-threatening,” the statement said.
