"Late in the evening, the russians attacked Nikopol with kamikaze UAVs. The UAV attack in the evening testifies to the russians' use of new drones with night vision cameras," Yevtushenko wrote.

According to him, such drones have been used by the occupiers at the front for a long time, but this is the first case on the territory of the district.

"Nikopol greeted the morning with air alert and a warning about the danger of using kamikaze UAVs by the enemy. The Defense Forces of Ukraine are carrying out combat work. However, if possible, it is better to stay in buildings," he warned.
