Ukrainian drone strike on Belgorod kills five civilians
A large-scale Ukrainian drone attack targeted Russia's Belgorod border region, killing five people and injuring 25 others, including a four-year-old boy. The regional administration reported that the strikes damaged 29 apartment blocks, five private houses, and several administrative and commercial buildings. This escalation follows Ukraine's stated strategy of conducting long-range precision strikes against Russian logistics and residential hubs to degrade Moscow's capacity to sustain its frontline offensive.
