MOSCOW (Reuters) -A Ukrainian drone slammed into a car on Tuesday on a highway in Russia's border Belgorod region, killing two people and injuring three, the first of a series of attacks during the day, regional governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said.
Gladkov, writing on the Telegram messaging app, later wrote that five people were injured in cars in three incidents in areas near the Ukrainian border.
Drones later in the day attacked six localities in Belgorod region, Gladkov wrote. An apartment building, a house and a business were damaged, but no casualties were reported.
Later in the evening, the governor of neighbouring Kursk region, Alexander Khinshtein, said drones attacked the town of Rylsk, injuring three people and damaging three apartment buildings, a private house and a kindergarten.
Reuters could not independently verify any of the assertions from local officials.
Russian President Vladimir Putin congratulated Russian forces last weekend on what he said was the expulsion of the last Ukrainian forces from Kursk region more than eight months after Kyiv's forces launched a cross-border incursion.
