Russian shelling in the morning reportedly damaged a library, shop, and power line in the town.

Russian forces also reportedly attacked an ambulance with a kamikaze drone in the afternoon, killing a 54-year-old driver. His 53-year-old wife suffered severe injuries and was hospitalized, the governor said.
