According to the head of Malynivka settlement, Mykola Semeryanov, in terms of the number of fatalities, this is the largest strike on the community since the start of the full-scale invasion.

Recall that earlier Russian forces attacked the Lozova Stud Farm in the Kharkiv region twice within a week. As a result of the strikes, hundreds of tons of hay and grain stored for the winter for more than 200 horses were destroyed. No people or animals were harmed at that time.

The first strike on the enterprise’s territory occurred on 14 September: a Russian drone hit a warehouse where more than 300 tons of oats and other material assets were stored. According to preliminary estimates, the enterprise’s losses will amount to millions of hryvnias.
