Russian troops again attacked Kramatorsk with FPV drones on the night of July 4 and in the morning. The strikes caused two fires, which were promptly extinguished by rescue workers.
The first strike occurred at night. A Russian drone struck the building of a local business. This sparked a large-scale fire that engulfed approximately 600 square meters. “Russian troops continue to attack Kramatorsk with FPV drones. Overnight, a strike on a local business building sparked a fire covering 600 square meters. Early this morning, the enemy launched another strike—this time targeting a civilian vehicle, which also caught fire,” the State Emergency Service reported.
In the morning, the occupiers attacked the city again. This time, a civilian vehicle was hit. The vehicle caught fire as a result of the strike. Rescue workers quickly arrived at the scene and extinguished both fires. Thanks to their efforts, the fire was prevented from spreading to neighboring structures.
In addition, another fire caused by a Russian drone attack occurred in the village of Ocheretine in the Oleksandrivka community. There, a drone struck a civilian truck. The strike caused a fire covering an area of about 20 square meters, which was also promptly extinguished by State Emergency Service units. The State Emergency Service reported that there were no fatalities or injuries in any of the three incidents.

At the same time, emergency services continue to operate even under the threat of repeat strikes to eliminate the consequences of the attacks as quickly as possible and assist the affected population. This was reported by the Main Directorate of the State Emergency Service in Donetsk Oblast.
