The air raid alert in the Bucha community was announced at 18:15 and lifted at 20:12 — it lasted almost two hours. During the alert the administration warned of a jet-powered drone heading for Kotsiubynske.

Rescuers worked at several locations across the region at once. Their work was interrupted again and again by new waves of enemy drones.

As soon as we manage to bring the fire under control at one of them, another attack comes. And again we have to leave the danger zone, regroup and move to where help is needed.

This is not the first strike on warehouses in the district: at the end of August a hit in the village of Myla set off a detonation that killed dozens of people.

The administration urged residents to stay alert and to head for the nearest shelter as soon as an alert is announced.

As a reminder, debris damaged 11 houses in Vorzel.
