Russian forces launched a two-drone assault, hitting the trauma ward building of a city hospital, Kramatorsk City Military Administration chief Oleksandr Honcharenko reports.

Russia attacked Kramatorsk in Ukraine again today. Two strike drones hit the trauma ward building of the city hospital.

Honcharenko said this was a deliberate strike on civilian infrastructure and people who save lives every day.

"A hospital is a place where lives are saved. Doctors, nurses and orderlies work here, and ambulances bring the wounded here. And this is exactly where the Russians directed their weapons. This cannot have been accidental," he noted.

The military administration chief added that despite the attack, medical workers remain at their posts and continue working.

"Kramatorsk stands firm. And this is thanks to people who, despite everything, continue to work," Honcharenko stressed.

As previously reported, a Russian drone near Kramatorsk struck a delivery vehicle owned by the Ukrposhta postal operator today, August 29. The driver suffered a blast injury, and about 500 packages were burned.

The city of Kramatorsk in Ukraine comes under attack almost daily due to its proximity to the front line. On August 16, a Russian drone hit a post office branch, killing one person and injuring six others.
