Quote: "A reconnaissance drone was downed in the Kamianske district. Thank you, defenders of the skies! Sadly, there was also a Russian strike in the region. The enemy attacked infrastructure, and a fire broke out."

Details: Lysak did not specify what kind of weapon was used in the strike. Earlier, Ukraine's Air Force had reported a Russian drone, thought to be a reconnaissance drone, flying above the city of Dnipro. An air-raid warning was issued in the region at 13:40, and the all-clear was given at 14:35.

Background: On 22 May the Russians struck a residential area in Kharkiv’s Shevchenkivskyi district with guided aerial bombs, injuring 10 people. Four of them were hospitalised, one in a serious condition.
