Quote: “Firefighters were heading to a call in one of the border settlements in the Sumy district on 22 September in the afternoon. While on the move, the enemy, likely using a fibre-optic FPV drone, conducted a targeted strike on the fire appliance carrying the firefighters.”

Details: Firefighters were evacuated with the help of an armoured vehicle. The fire appliance was damaged as a result of the attack.

The State Emergency Service stressed that the attack on emergency workers is a war crime and yet another example of the cynicism of Russian forces, who do not stop even at attacks on those saving civilians.
