Three people traveling in a car were killed in a Ukrainian drone strike in the Russian border region of Belgorod, Russian authorities reported, quoted by DPA and BTA.
The drone dropped an explosive device on a car in the village of Logachovka near the border with Ukraine, killing a man and two girls aged 14 and 18, regional governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said on his Telegram social network account.
Gladkov recalled that it was forbidden to visit this or other settlements where a state of emergency has been declared.
Ukraine is defending itself from the Russian invasion, which has been going on for almost three years, by launching counterattacks on Russian territory. This has repeatedly led to deaths and injuries, DPA recalls.
The information cannot be confirmed by independent sources, the agency notes.
