A DTEK Energy worker was injured overnight when a russian drone hit one of the company's coal mines in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region, the company said, in an attack it did not immediately quantify beyond the single casualty.

Colleagues gave the employee first aid at the site before paramedics took him to hospital, where DTEK said his condition is now stable.

The company said it is covering the costs of his treatment and ongoing support.
