Russia launches ‘double-tap’ attack on rescue workers in Sumy Oblast.
Russian forces launched a “double-tap” attack on first responders as they were curbing the aftermath of the previous attack in Sumy Oblast on July 21, the State Emergency Service said.
Overnight, Russian forces launched a large-scale attack with 39 drones and five missiles across Ukraine. At least one missile successfully hit critical infrastructure in Sumy Oblast, and two drones were downed over the region, according to local authorities.
Russian troops also shelled Sumy Oblast 20 times overnight with mortars, and deployed mines and FPV (first-person view) drones, causing 44 explosions, the Sumy Oblast Military Administration reported.
The overnight attacks caused five fires in the region. As rescue workers were extinguishing one of the fires at a residential building in the morning, Russian forces attacked again, according to the State Emergency Service.
Since first responders at the site took shelter, there were no casualties in the “double-tap” attack. They were able to finish extinguishing the fire afterward.
