During the morning shelling of Ukraine, the russian military accidentally "dropped" a FAB-250 bomb on the temporarily occupied Rubizhne, Luhansk region. This was reported by the Russian media with reference to the occupation authorities, UNN reports.

The rest decided to move to relatives and friends on their own.

For reference
The FAB-250 is a Soviet aerial bomb equipped with an explosive warhead. The munition weighs 250 kg and is used by the aviation of the russian federation, as well as some post-Soviet republics and some countries that import them.
Due to the long flight range of these aircraft, russians can drop bombs on advanced Ukrainian positions without entering the Ukrainian air defense zone.

As a result , four russians were injured, more than 100 houses, a school, a house of culture, an administration building, as well as five cars and a tractor were damaged.
