Drones have visited the city of Alchevsk in Luhansk Oblast, which has been occupied since 2014. Local residents heard the work of air defense, a series of flights, and saw the glow and smoke from the fire.
The attack was presumably carried out by strike UAVs of the Ukrainian Defense Forces. The network writes that there were several very loud explosions in Alchevsk. The attack began late on Monday evening, June 8, and continued into the night of Tuesday. “After a series of arrivals, a large-scale fire broke out,” the authors of the Telegram channel Exilenova+ noted.
As of 01:00 on Tuesday, information about which object on the TOT caught fire as a result of the shelling was being clarified.
