Russia carried out an airstrike on the village of Oleksiievo-Druzhkivka in the Kramatorsk district of Donetsk region on the evening of July 7. Today, rescuers retrieved the bodies of two deceased individuals from under the rubble, according to the State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES).
The rescuers reported that two civilians, a 39-year-old man and a 67-year-old woman, were killed in the attack.
As a result of the strike, one private residential house was destroyed, and two others were damaged. During emergency rescue operations, the bodies of the deceased were recovered from the rubble.
According to the SES, rescuers dismantled around 50 tons of destroyed structures. The work has been completed.
Rescuers also released a video from the site of the Russian airstrike on the village. They once again warn: staying in frontline settlements is dangerous. Russian forces are deliberately targeting civilian infrastructure. To preserve their lives and health, residents are advised to evacuate to safer regions.
