"Russian drone hit just half a meter from my car" - Civilian vehicle

According to reports, Russian forces targeted the vehicle of a Ukrainian volunteer while he was evacuating civilians in Russian-controlled Donetsk.

According to foreign media, Kyiv Independent reports that volunteer Yevhen Tkachov was evacuating civilians from the village of Zoria when they were targeted by three drones.

"I turned on the emergency lights, got out of the car and started waving my arms to show that I was a civilian," he told Ukrainska Pravda, writes A2 CNN.

"Despite this, the drone hit just half a meter away from my car. I signaled the two cars behind me to move forward, but I couldn't drive myself anymore because my car wouldn't start," he continued.

In a statement this morning, Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the number of FPV drones used by Russia has doubled during Vladimir Putin's proposed Easter ceasefire.

Recall that earlier this morning several explosions were heard in Donetsk, writes A2 CNN.

State news agency TASS, citing local "operational services," said at least three explosions were heard in the city, which has been under Russian control since 2014. (A2 Televizion)
