The Russians attacked Shevchenkove in the Kharkiv region

On October 2, Russian troops launched several attacks with strike drones on the residential area of the village of Shevchenkove in the Kupiansk district. Three local residents were injured.

Following a morning strike on a two-story building, people experienced acute stress reactions. A fire also broke out, covering an area of 150 square meters—the roof structure, windows, and balconies were ablaze.

Later, an emergency medical vehicle was damaged as a result of a second strike.

Over the past 24 hours, Russian occupation forces carried out 741 strikes on 51 settlements in the Zaporizhzhia region.
