Ukraine kills six in drone attack on Russia's Belgorod
Ukraine has killed six people and injured 35 others in a drone attack on vehicles carrying workers in Russia's border region of Belgorod.
Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said the attack targeted two buses taking employees of a nearby factory to work as well as a passenger vehicle near the village of Berezovka on Monday.
"Unfortunately, as a result of an explosion, six people died at the scene from their wounds," Gladkov said.
He added that "35 people were wounded" in the attack, including two children.
According to his statements, one of the injured was in "serious condition" and undergoing surgery.
The governor published a picture of a bus with its windows blown out and roof damaged.
Ukraine has repeatedly been fatally attacking Belgorod in recent months, and Monday's attack is the deadliest in weeks.
Russia launched the military operation in Ukraine on February 24, 2022. Western countries have responded to the Russian military operation by backing Ukraine with cash and heavy weaponry while imposing unprecedented sanctions on Russian officials and entities.
Moscow has repeatedly warned that such a flow of weapons to Kiev will only prolong the conflict.
Since the start of the war in Ukraine, the US, alone, has pledged more than $44 billion in security aid to Ukraine.
