Russia hits Lozova with jet-type guided bomb for the first time — it flew 130 km

The head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, Oleh Syniehubov, reported this.

At around 5:35 p.m., the Russians attacked the town with a guided bomb. The strike caused a private house to catch fire and damaged 11 more homes.

“Six people were injured: women aged 47, 77, 51, 80 and 66, and a 39-year-old man. All are receiving high-quality medical care,” Syniehubov said.

Emergency services and medics are working at the scene.

As of 8:28 p.m., the regional governor said that the 47- and 77-year-old women sustained blast injuries and were hospitalized, while the other four injured received medical aid on site.

The Kharkiv regional prosecutor’s office has launched a pre-trial investigation under Article 438, Part 1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (violation of the laws and customs of war).

According to preliminary data, the strike was carried out with a new modification of a guided aerial bomb — the UMPB-5R (jet-type), which flew about 130 kilometers and was launched from Russian-occupied Ukrainian territory. This is the first recorded use of such a bomb against Lozova.
