(MENAFN- UkrinForm) As reported by Ukrinform, Titular Archbishop of Martana Visvaldas Kulbokas, the Apostolic Nuncio to Ukraine, confirmed the damage in a statement to Vatican News .

“What's especially concerning is that the drones appear to be targeting civilian neighbourhoods. I saw with my own eyes and heard with my own ears that some drones circled directly around the nunciature and nearby houses,” Kulbokas said.

He described visible damage to civilian structures-one located about 70 meters away and another roughly 90 meters from the Nunciature.

“Our own premises suffered some damage as well, both to the main building-the roof-and to the garage and service areas,” he added.

According to Kulbokas, Nunciature staff collected around ten large fragments, which he believes are parts of a drone. He confirmed there were no injuries among Nunciature personnel.
