Russian strikes kill six in Ukraine, a day after shopping complex attack

Russian strikes have killed six people in Ukraine, a day after an attack on a shopping complex. Separately, a Ukrainian drone hit a home in southern Russia, killing two children and injuring their parents, officials say.

Six people have been killed in Russian strikes on Ukraine, coming just a day after an attack on a shopping complex in the country.

Cross-border toll

Meanwhile, in a separate incident, a Ukrainian drone struck a residential home in southern Russia. Local officials reported that the strike killed two children and left their parents injured.

The two incidents highlight the continued toll the war is taking on civilians on both sides of the front line, with attacks reported both inside Ukraine and in Russian border regions. Further details on the exact locations and circumstances of both strikes have not yet been fully confirmed.

The reports come amid an ongoing pattern of cross-border strikes between the two countries, with civilian casualties recorded on both sides in recent days.
