(MENAFN- UkrinForm) As a result of the Russian attack on the ecopark near Kharkiv, a stable burned down, the employees who were rescuing the animals were injured, and one of them was hospitalized.
This is reported on the Feldman Ecopark's facebook page, Ukrinform reports.
“Last night, a large-scale fire broke out in the territory of Feldman Ecopark as a result of enemy shelling. No explosions were recorded on the territory of the park, but probably due to the fall of the wreckage of Russian attack drones, the building of the stables and the guest houses located next to it caught fire,” the post says.
Employees of the complex who were spending the night nearby rescued the animals.
“Thanks to the selfless and professional actions of our employees, the animals were not injured in the fire: they took all the horses out of the burning stables, risking their own lives. These are truly heroic actions: the wooden building caught fire instantly and the situation was critical,” the park says.
