Russian forces launched an attack on parked lorries in Kharkiv Oblast, specifically near Valky, according to reports from the local prosecutor's office. The incident occurred on the Kharkiv-Kyiv road and involved the use of a Geran-2 UAV, resulting in injuries to two drivers—one of whom is reported to be unconscious and both have been hospitalized. This attack demonstrates the continued conflict in the region, impacting civilians and transport infrastructure that are not directly involved in combat operations.

Additionally, on February 23, another attack was reported in the village of Krasnyi Yar within Vovchansk hromada, where Russian forces struck using an FPV drone, injuring a woman and a man. The use of drones in these attacks highlights a trend in modern warfare where unmanned aerial vehicles are employed to target logistical and civilian resources, raising concerns about the safety of the civilian population in conflict zones like Kharkiv Oblast.

The frequency of such attacks indicates an ongoing escalation in hostilities and reflects the challenging humanitarian situation in Ukraine, as attacks on transport vehicles hinder essential supplies and services. The local prosecutor's office is continuing to investigate these incidents, emphasizing the need for accountability in the face of civilian casualties during military actions.
