“Immediately after the explosion, they were taken to a local hospital. After the operative survey of the injured, three resuscitation vehicles were urgently called from the occupied Melitopol. From there, evacuation by military helicopters to Russian territory is already planned,” the statement said.
Nothing is further explained about the nature of the explosion, but a video taken from a drone was attached to the “Telegram” post. It shows a drone crashing into the window of an administrative building.
Enerhodara is located near the front line. Next to the city was until recently the Kahovka reservoir, which disappeared after the explosion of the dam of the Kahovka hydroelectric power plant.
