In a concerning incident, Russian forces used an FPV drone to strike a people carrier near Sloviansk in Donetsk Oblast on 7 September. The attack resulted in the death of a 61-year-old woman and injuries to five other women aged 49, 51, 62, 71, and 72.
The exact cause of the women's injuries is not specified in the provided information, but they include head injuries, concussion, abrasions, lacerations, bruising, and acute stress reactions. The nature of the acute stress reactions suffered by the women is not detailed.
The incident was investigated by the Donetsk Oblast Prosecutor's Office, and Vadym Liakh, Head of Sloviansk City Military Administration, provided details about the incident. In response to the threat of FPV drone strikes in the area, the temporary restriction of traffic along the Kyiv-Dovzhanskyi road near Sloviansk has been enforced.
The section of the Kyiv-Dovzhanskyi road from the city exit near Slovkurort park to the turn-off to Mayatske Forest is temporarily restricted. The restriction is aimed at ensuring the safety of residents and visitors. Vadym Liakh has also urged residents and visitors of Sloviansk to avoid this road section due to the danger of FPV drone strikes.
The search results do not provide information about the Russian commander who initiated the FPV drone attack. Despite this, the threat of FPV drone strikes in Sloviansk, Donetsk Oblast, continues to pose a risk to civilians and traffic in the area. The Kyiv-Dovzhanskyi road, a specific section near Sloviansk, remains a potential target for FPV drone strikes, necessitating the temporary restriction of traffic.
The authorities in Sloviansk have taken measures to protect civilians from the ongoing threat. The Kyiv-Dovzhanskyi road, currently considered dangerous due to the potential use of FPV drones, serves as a reminder of the precarious situation in the region.
The women who were injured in the attack were taken to a medical facility for treatment. The community hopes for their swift recovery and the cessation of such hostile activities in the future. The incident underscores the importance of maintaining vigilance and adhering to safety guidelines in areas where the threat of FPV drone strikes persists.
