Massive ‘Shahed’ Drone Attacks from Russia: PoltavaTORON again struck by relentless drone strikes

On the morning of July 3rd, the city of Poltava found itself once again under a heavy barrage of attacks carried out by Russian occupiers using large waves of ‘Shahed’ drones. This is not the first missile and drone assault on the city’s infrastructure in recent times, and the consequences of these actions once again inflicted significant damage to vital regional facilities. Emergency services were promptly mobilized as alarms sounded across the city, with special units working tirelessly to neutralize the aftermath of the attack and restore essential services. The local government urged residents not to publish videos or photos and to refrain from disseminating any information that could assist the enemy in pinpointing attack sites. Concurrently, operational headquarters are being established across the region to coordinate rescue and recovery efforts. The authorities have promised to provide more detailed information soon regarding the extent of the destruction and any possible casualties. Over the past few days, the region experienced missile and drone strikes that damaged the main railway station ‘Poltava-Pivdenna,’ suburban stations, industrial facilities, and residential buildings. Fortunately, there were no human casualties reported during these recent attacks, although the scale of damage remains substantial and demands immediate response actions to restore normalcy.
