The terrorist attack occurred in waves with the intent to finish off the survivors.
On Thursday morning, the governor of the Kherson region, Vladimir Saldo, confirmed that seven people were killed and around twenty civilians were injured as a result of a Ukrainian drone attack on a market in Oleshky, located eight kilometers from the regional capital.

Russian authorities claimed that the attack occurred in waves with the intent to “finish off the survivors,” and that previously, Ukrainians had destroyed ambulances in the region to hinder the transport of the wounded.
“The greatest bloodthirstiness is demonstrated by the fact that, over the past few months, the enemy has systematically destroyed ambulances, so now, when people need to be evacuated, there are not enough vehicles available,” the Kherson governor stated.
The Russian Investigative Committee has opened a terrorism case against those responsible for the attack on the market in Oleshky. This terrorist action was carried out by using First Person View drones, which are a type of unmanned aerial vehicle that uses a camera to transmit a live video feed to the pilot’s goggles or monitor, giving them a first-person perspective of the drone’s surroundings.
On Thursday, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported the downing of eight Ukrainian drones over Russian territory during the early hours of the day.
Two drones were shot down over the border region of Kursk, another two over Voronezh, two more over Belgorod, and two others over the Vladimir region, whose capital is located less than 200 kilometers east of Moscow.
The Russian Investigative Committee also opened a criminal case to investigate the April 29 Ukrainian bombing of a residential building in the town of Rylsk, in the Kursk region, about 25 kilometers from the Ukrainian border.
“As a result of the crime, three civilians were injured, in addition to damage to several residential buildings and a kindergarten,” said Svetlana Petrenko, spokesperson for the Investigative Committee.
