"A multi-unit residential building, warehouses and outbuildings, a farm, and vehicles were on fire," the State Emergency Service of Ukraine reports.
Oleksandr Pertsovskyi, chairman of the board of Ukrainian Railways, notes that Lozova has suffered a massive Russian airstrike at least twice in the past month and a half.
"All targets during today's latest airstrike on Lozova were in shelters," Pertsovskyi says.
Overnight, the Russians attacked Ukraine from eight directions simultaneously. They deployed 172 Shahed and Gerbera strike drones, some of which were jet-powered.

The fire spread over a large area, and more than 80 firefighters were needed to extinguish it.
