A Russian drone strike in Sumy, Ukraine, killed three people, including a child, and injured three others. The attack's full impact is still unclear.
(Reuters) -A Russian drone attack on a village in the Sumy area overnight killed an 8-year-old boy and two adults and injured another three people, the military administration of the region in northeast Ukraine said early on Tuesday.
"The strike took the lives of people from different families," the administration said on the Telegram messaging app. "They all lived on the same street. They went to sleep in their homes. But Russian drones interrupted their sleep - forever."
The full scale of the overnight attack on the region was not immediately clear.
Reuters could not independently verify the report. There was no immediate comment from Russia. Both sides deny targeting civilians in their attacks, but thousands of civilians have died in the war that Russia started with the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
