Russian Drones Hit Polish Enterprise in Ukraine, Casualties Reported

On the night of 15 to 16 July, a factory belonging to the Polish group Barlinek was damaged in the city of Vinnytsia, in central Ukraine, as a result of a Russian attack by strike drones. There are casualties. 

The Gaze writes about it, referring to a post by Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski on social media.

Sikorski reported that during the Russian attack on Vinnytsia, a factory belonging to the Polish Barlinek Group was damaged.

"The factory manager has just informed me that this was a deliberate attack from three directions. There are casualties, including two with severe burns. Ukrainian services are working at the site, and representatives of our consulate are also present. Putin's criminal war is approaching our borders," wrote the head of the Polish Foreign Ministry.

The Barlinek Group manufactures wooden flooring.

According to the latest information, there are a total of eight victims in Vinnytsia. During the evening and night, the frontline cities of Kramatorsk, Kharkiv and Kryvyi Rih were also hit by Russian strikes, with destruction in all cities. 

Residents of Romanian towns on the Danube witnessed another Russian strike near Izmail.

As The Gaze reported earlier, Russian forces have launched a coordinated drone attack against Ukraine by routing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) through Belarusian airspace, once again drawing attention to Minsk's ambiguous role in the ongoing war.

According to independent military outlets and eyewitness accounts from border communities, multiple Shahed-type kamikaze drones were observed flying across Belarus on 12 July before veering south into Ukraine's Zhytomyr region during the massive overnight drone and missile attack on Ukraine.
