A 50-year-old man was killed in the Vesniane community of Ukraine's Mykolaiv region following a morning attack using Shahed-type drones, according to Ukrinform.
The strike is the latest in a series of attacks using Iranian-designed Shahed drones, which Russia has employed extensively against Ukrainian territory, including residential areas and civilian infrastructure, since the start of its full-scale invasion.
Details of the attack
Local authorities did not immediately release further details about the circumstances of the man's death or the extent of damage caused by the attack in the Vesniane community. The Mykolaiv region, located in southern Ukraine, has been repeatedly targeted by Russian drone and missile strikes throughout the conflict.
Ukrainian officials continue to report civilian casualties from such attacks on a near-daily basis, with air defense systems intercepting some incoming drones while others reach their targets, causing damage to homes and infrastructure and, in some cases, resulting in deaths and injuries among the civilian population.
