Just a few hundred meters away from us, a Shahed drone struck an open area along the Dnipro River, in the city of Dnipro. We immediately put on our protective vests. Moments later, we were talking with a group of young people about how lucky it was that no people or homes had been hit in that first strike.<br>But while we were standing there, we saw air defense systems go into action in the distance. And we heard the familiar, droning sound of another incoming Shahed – a large Russian drone carrying between 50 and 200 kilos of explosives, depending on the type. This time, it hit with a deafening explosion, just a few hundred meters away again.<br>Once the initial shock wore off, we started filming. What followed were at least eight more strikes in the area – each one terrifyingly close.<br>As far as we know, all of the Shaheds in this bombardment hit civilian targets in residential areas, not far from the city center. Fortunately, everyone at The Holland House remained unharmed. But there are at least three people confirmed dead – including a child.<br>We’ve heard Shaheds before. But never this close, never this intense… The world needs to know: the vast majority of Shahed, drone, and guided missile attacks that land away from the front lines hit civilian targets. We visited several of the affected sites last night – and all of them were right in the middle of residential neighborhoods.<br>And still, today we “just” continue our humanitarian work. Because that’s what we do.<br>👏 Support our actions, donate via: -> frankyandcoen.nl/en/doneer-nu <-</p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/SlavaUkraini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SlavaUkraini</span></a> ! <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/HeroyamSl%C3%A1va" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HeroyamSláva</span></a>! <br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Crush" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Crush</span></a> the <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/RussianTerroristState" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RussianTerroristState</span></a></p>
