Quote: "At least one person was killed and two others were injured as a result of an attack on Selydove. The town came under fire at midday today – the Russians once again struck civilians with an aerial bomb."
Details: The Russians reportedly dropped an unguided aerial bomb, likely an FAB-500, on a residential area, killing a 63-year-old woman. A married couple and their neighbour received shrapnel wounds and have been hospitalised.
The Russians also damaged 24 houses and two cars. Vadym Filashkin, Head of the Donetsk Oblast Military Administration, once again urged people living in the region to evacuate.
"I’m emphasising once again: it is dangerous to stay in Donetsk Oblast! Evacuate to stay safe," Filashkin noted.
In addition, the Donetsk Oblast Prosecutor's Office reports that the Russian army targeted the settlement of Horniak on 2 July 2024. The attack injured a 55-year-old local while at home. The town of New-York was also hit by the Russian attack, and a 76-year-old resident was killed, while a 54-year-old man was injured in the village of Pivnichne, Bakhmut district.
