A United Nations humanitarian convoy was struck by Russian FPV drones in Kherson, Ukraine, on May 14, 2026.

Despite the clear markings on the vehicles and prior coordination with both Russian and Ukrainian authorities, the UN has not been able to identify the party responsible for the attack. The incident was captured on video and circulated by Russian Telegram channels, which often publish footage of drone operations in the region. Ukrainian officials, including Oleksandr Prokudin, head of the Kherson Oblast Military Administration, have labeled the strike a deliberate attack by Russian forces.
