Serhii Beskrestnov, an adviser to Ukraine's defense minister known by the call sign "Flash," showed his house destroyed after a Russian drone attack. He said that Russian forces launched five jet-powered drones at his family's home in an attempt to kill everyone.

According to Ukrinform, he wrote about this on Facebook.

"I could believe in an assassination attempt against me personally, in sabotage, but I could never have imagined that the enemy would send five jet 'Shahed' drones at my family's civilian home to kill everyone," Beskrestnov said.

He also noted that he is currently in a cast and "will apparently be for a long time." "Right now I need to devote time to my family, but I physically can't," "Flash" added.
