“As we approached the first location, I saw a drone above my head. My first impression is that it belongs to construction workers, given that they did not pay any attention to it. I show it to them, and at that very moment the drone crashes at the fourth floor [of the building],” Gladkov wrote on Telegram.“As we approached the first location, I saw a drone above my head.

Gladkov left the scene to inspect another location only to return shortly after upon receiving news the same building was hit by another drone. The UAV apparently hit at the same spot, causing partial collapse of the building’s roof. The debris buried the father of the resident of the destroyed apartment, who showed up to check on his son after the first attack.

The governor and his detail attempted to dig the civilian out from the debris, footage shared by Gladkov shows. They weren’t able to do this without the intervention of emergency services, which recovered the body of the man, who had been killed in the collapse. During the rescue operation, another Ukrainian drone was spotted in the area, with law enforcement opening fire on it, Gladkov noted.
