A 52‑year‑old vegetable seller in Kherson has described how a Russian drone pursued him around his market van before detonating beside him.
An attack captured on National Police CCTV cameras was described by Ukrainian officials as a wider pattern of “human safari” strikes on civilians.
Yuriy says the day began like any other. He and his wife drove in to set up their stall, parking their van at a farmers’ market.
“We had just started laying out the vegetables. I had only set up the umbrellas and begun taking the crates out. My wife was there too,” the 52‑year‑old said from his hospital bed.
“We hear a buzzing sound, you can’t see it, it flew out from somewhere behind the market, out of the bushes and flew really low.”
