Ukraine drone attack kills 1 in Russian border region

MOSCOW: A Ukrainian drone attack on Saturday left a man dead in the Russian border region of Belgorod, local authorities said.
The attack hit a vehicle in the town of Krasnaya Yaruga and killed a “civilian,” according to a statement from the regional authorities.
Ukraine and Russia have begun trading attacks after a three-day truce to mark the anniversary of victory in the Second World War, brokered by the United States, expired overnight from Monday to Tuesday.
Since sending troops into Ukraine in February 2022, Russia has frequently bombarded Ukraine’s territory, targeting its essential infrastructure in particular.
In retaliation, Ukraine has launched attacks which Kyiv insists target both Moscow’s military and the country’s energy infrastructure, in an attempt to hamper the Kremlin’s ability to finance the war effort.
After an attack left 24 people dead in the capital Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky argued that Kyiv was “entirely justified” to target Russia’s fossil fuel industry.
