Four people died and ten were injured when a Ukrainian drone hit the village of Arkhipo-Osipovka in Russia's Krasnodar Territory on August 3, regional governor Veniamin Kondratyev said in an official statement. Three of the wounded, including a child, were rushed to hospital.
The governor called the strike on civilian infrastructure a tragedy and said a disaster medicine team was deployed to the scene immediately. Video shared on social media appears to show a drone striking a beach area, followed by a loud explosion.
There was no immediate comment from Kyiv. Both Ukraine and Russia have previously insisted they do not intentionally target civilians or civilian sites.
Overnight, Ukraine's General Staff reported striking a repair base for a Russian artillery brigade and warehouses in occupied Crimea, along with a drone launch site in Bryansk region and other military targets.
Separately, Russian officials reported a drone attack on a Wildberries warehouse in the Vladimir region that injured one person, and multiple other overnight strikes across western Russia.
