  "account": "Ukraine has accused Russia of committing a war crime following footage showing a Russian drone chasing and attacking a vegetable vendor in Kherson, a southern Ukrainian city. The incident left a civilian wounded, though he survived with shrapnel injuries and shock. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy labeled the footage as evidence of Russia's targeting of civilians and called for stronger international pressure on Moscow. The victim, identified as 52-year-old Yurii, was selling vegetables when the drone began pursuing him. Despite Yurii's attempts to signal he posed no threat, the drone continued its attack, even ducking under an umbrella as he fled. Ukraine has documented numerous \"safari\" drone attacks against civilians in Kherson, a city near the front line. In a separate incident, Russia accused Ukraine of a \"terrorist\" drone attack that killed seven people, including three children, at a resort town on the Black Sea.",
