Mykolaiv under attack: Russian drones cause hotel fire and damage
Russia attacked Mykolaiv with drones, causing a fire at a recreational facility on the morning of April 28, Mykolaiv Mayor Oleksandr Senkevich reported on Telegram.
Rescuers have extinguished the fire over an area of 20 m². There were no casualties.
The Russian military attacked the city at 4:45 a.m., the Mykolaiv Oblast Military Administration said. The attack damaged a hotel building. A fire broke out that was swiftly extinguished.
Windows in another hotel nearby were smashed, and cars were damaged. The Russian attack also damaged a heat-generating infrastructure facility. The consequences are being investigated.
Ukraine’s Air Defense Forces shot down four Shahed UAVs and one drone of an unspecified type in Ukraine during the overnight attack.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
