At least ten people were killed and dozens wounded in drone attacks on Russia’s Krasnodar region and occupied Crimea, Russian authorities said on Monday.

Veniamin Kondratyev, governor of Krasnodar, reported six dead in Arkhipo-Osipovka, part of the Gelendzhik resort area. Three of the dead were children, he said, and at least 40 people were injured, some of them children. He called the attack a deliberate strike on civilians and described it as a tragedy.

Kondratyev stated the drone targeted civilian infrastructure. Social media videos verified by Reuters show an apparent drone slamming into a crowded beach with a loud explosion. A medical disaster team was dispatched to the scene.

Sergei Aksyonov, the Russian-installed governor of Crimea, said four people were killed in a separate attack on the peninsula, which Russia annexed in 2014. He did not specify the location.

Russia’s defense ministry claimed its air defenses intercepted 131 Ukrainian drones over Russia and Crimea overnight. The Russian foreign ministry accused Ukraine of terrorism. Ukraine has not commented on the beach attack but has previously said it does not target civilians.

Reports also mentioned a drone strike on a Wildberries warehouse in Vladimir region, causing a fire. A man was wounded. Wildberries evacuated staff. Ukraine confirmed attacks on the warehouse and on Belgorod State Technological University, allegedly used for drone control development.
