MOSCOW: Several people were injured and houses and non-residential buildings were damaged as a result of Ukraine’s overnight drone attack on the neighbouring Russia’s southwestern regions of Lipetsk and Voronezh, regional governors said on Tuesday. Russia’s air defence units destroyed 12 drones over the Voronezh region that borders Ukraine, Governor Alexander Gusev said on the Telegram messaging app.
“Unfortunately, there were injuries,” Gusev said. “In central Voronezh, several people sustained minor injuries due to debris from a downed UAV (unmanned aerial vehicles).”
Several apartments in multi-storey buildings in the city of Voronezh that is the administrative centre of the broader Voronezh region were damaged, as well as houses in the suburbs, Governor Gusev said.
