A resident of Belgorod, Russia, has provided a detailed account of a Ukrainian drone attack that injured her and a friend last summer. The woman states that on the evening of August 30, 2025, a drone dropped an explosive device on them while they were walking dogs, causing severe shrapnel wounds and barotrauma. She suffered severed leg veins and still has four pieces of shrapnel in her body, one of which damaged nerves and ligaments. Despite undergoing surgery in October, she has been waiting over four months for promised injury compensation from the Russian state.
