Points of attention

  • A Russian drone strike on Poltava's city and regional TRC and SAPO resulted in casualties among military personnel and civilians.
  • Two military personnel and two female employees of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were among the victims of the attack.
  • Russia's intention to disrupt the mobilization process of the Ukrainian army is evident through such strikes in urban areas.

Russia strikes Poltava: there are injured soldiers

This was announced by the spokesman for the command of the Land Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Vitaliy Sarantsev, on the air of "Suspilne.Studio".

There were two hits: one of them on the territory of the Poltava city TRC and SP, the second on the territory of the Poltava regional TRC and SP. Both military facilities are located in a fairly dense urban area.

Sarantsev noted that, as a result, many civilians who were near administrative buildings were among the victims. Among the victims were 2 military personnel of the Central Military District and 2 female employees of the Armed Forces of Ukraine who worked there.

We will report later whether there are any military personnel among the dead. There is a threat of repeated strikes.

The spokesman also added that in this way Russia is purposefully trying to disrupt the mobilization process in Ukraine. According to him, in recent days the enemy has begun practicing such strikes precisely for this purpose.

At the same time, he emphasized that it would be impossible to stop the mobilization, so it was too early to "uncork the champagne" for the Russian military and their supporters.

On the morning of July 3, the Russians attacked Poltava with drones, and as a result of hitting the building of the Poltava United City CCC and SP, a fire broke out, killing 2 people and injuring 11 more.
