  "account": "On September 1st, a Russian drone targeted a fire truck en route to a house fire in the village of Kushuhum, near Zaporizhzhia. Four rescuers were injured in the attack, as reported by Ivan Fedorov, the head of Zaporizhzhia Oblast. The fire had been ignited by shelling from Russian forces. This incident occurred following a widespread Russian air assault that took place overnight. Russian drones frequently target Ukrainian towns, often striking the crews dispatched to respond to those attacks. The State Emergency Service confirmed the drone strike and stated that the injured firefighters were being treated at hospitals with varying degrees of severity. The crew was dispatched to extinguish a fire in a detached house, which had been set ablaze by Russian shelling.",
  "summary": "The crew was answering a call in a village outside Zaporizhzhia, and all four men went to hospital with injuries of differing severity.",
