Volunteers killed and medics injured by Russian attacks in Kharkiv

Two volunteers killed while delivering bread in Kozahcha Lopan, while two medics were injured during an FPV attack in the Kindrashivka community, and a resident sought help following a drone attack on a car in Russkaya Lozovoya, according to reports from local administrations in Kharkiv.

Volunteers delivering bread were killed when their car was destroyed by Russian FPV drones between 11:30 and 12:00 this morning, reported head of the Dergachy community Vyacheslav Zadorenko, noting that the car was destroyed, while the 35-year-old and 63-year-old men died on the spot.

Medics who were injured in Hrushivka in the Kindrashivka community, (aged 47 and 40), continued to perform their duties despite a female medic suffering a shin injury and a concussion, while the man also had a concussion, reported the Director of the Regional Center for Emergency Medical Aid Victor Zabashta.

“On the way, they saw a drone attacking them. It was flying directly into their car. But thanks to Canadian sponsors – they recently donated us several very powerful modern electronic warfare systems – the drone fell next to the car and exploded,” stated Zabashta.

Zabashta added that despite the 40-year-old female paramedic suffering barotrauma and a shrapnel wound to the leg, as well as the emergency medical technician receiving an acute barotrauma, they still continued their journey.

Russian drones also attacked a civilian car in Russkaya Lozovaya, but the two male occupants of the vehicle were able to escape prior to the hit, however a 70-year-old local resident later sought help by the medical services, but his life wasn’t in danger.
