Three civilians have lost their lives, one of them a minor, in new drone attacks attributed to Ukraine over the Donetsk region, Ukrainian territory currently controlled by Russia, according to local authorities.
The president of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic (DPR), Denís Pushilin, has stated on his official channel: "Three people have died, including a teenager, and two have been injured today in drone attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine."
According to the pro-Russian leader, the offensive has been recorded between the localities of Krasnaya Poliana and Stepnoye, in the Velikonovoselkovski district, when a drone struck a vehicle in which a family was traveling. The deceased are a young person born in 2011, a woman born in 1968, and a man born in 1989, while another person has suffered injuries.
In a second incident, a man born in 1989 has been moderately injured in another drone attack in the Volodarski district, according to the same source. "My sincere condolences to the families and friends of the deceased," Pushilin has indicated, who wishes a speedy recovery to the injured.
