It is happening even more in Zaporizhzhia Oblast. There were 13 attacks with toxic substances yesterday [on 4 September – ed.]. In general, the enemy actively uses drops from UAVs to enhance the work of their artillery and other assets. Yesterday, there were more than 200 such drops using more than 300 pieces of ammunition."
