They fired about 15 projectiles from Grad multiple-launch rocket systems. There were no casualties. The results of the attack are being confirmed."

Details: Lysak noted that the wreckage of the downed Russian drones fell in the Synelnykove district.

Windows were broken in five private houses there. Two outbuildings and a power line were damaged.
