Details: The attack occurred at about 15:40 on a road within an area governed by the Stetskivka village council. Two brothers were travelling on a two-wheel tractor towards the Khotin hromada when they were struck by a Russian drone.

One of the men, 57, was killed in the attack. His brother sustained injuries and is currently under medical supervision.

Hryhorov urged people in Sumy Oblast not to travel near the border if possible.

Quote: "I urge residents of Sumy Oblast to minimise travel towards the border area, as the enemy is systematically targeting civilian vehicles there."

Background: On Sunday 13 July, a Russian drone hit a critical infrastructure facility in Sumy, leaving part of the city without power.
