Russian forces attacked an ambulance in the Kupiansk community in Kharkiv Oblast, injuring one, the Kharkiv Oblast Military Administration reported on April 13.

Kupiansk, a crucial logistics juncture that was briefly occupied by Russia in 2022, has recently been under heavy attacks as Russia intensified its offensive efforts in the area.

A Russian FPV, first-person-view, drone dropped an explosive on the ambulance as it was on its way to Petropavlivka, according to the military administration.

Without specifying details, the regional authorities said a 58-year-old driver sustained injuries.
