A Ukrainian drone attack on the Russian border region of Belgorod killed two people on Friday, according to Russian Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov. Three Ukrainian “kamikaze drones” hit the village of Rozhdestvenska, close to the border with Ukraine, in a region that has been frequently targeted by artillery, rocket, and drone attacks during the two-year conflict. Two people were killed, and a third man was seriously wounded in the explosions, as reported by Gladkov on Telegram. An ambulance crew was dispatched to the site to treat the victims. The Russian defense ministry stated that its air defense forces had downed several Ukrainian drones over the Belgorod region throughout Friday morning. Both Russia and Ukraine engage in firing explosive-packed drones at each other’s territory in an effort to target locations beyond the frontlines.
