Ukrainian Drone Attack Kills 2 in Nizhny Novgorod Region
A Ukrainian drone attack on the Nizhny Novgorod region killed two people on Wednesday, while strikes in Crimea knocked out power in Sevastopol.
At least two people were killed Wednesday morning in a Ukrainian drone attack on the Nizhny Novgorod region, local authorities said. Governor Gleb Nikitin reported that two others were hospitalized with injuries, though he did not specify the location or timing of the attack. He said falling debris caused minor damage to an industrial facility, several cars and a number of residential buildings. Nizhny Novgorod is located about 600 kilometers (372 miles) from the Ukrainian border.
In annexed Crimea, the port city of Sevastopol lost power following a Ukrainian drone strike on local energy infrastructure, according to Kremlin-installed authorities. Sevastopol Governor Mikhail Razvozhaev urged residents to remain calm and minimize energy consumption while technicians worked to repair the damage and restore the grid. A few hours later, Razvozhaev said power had been partially restored to the city, which hosts Russia's Black Sea Fleet.
Russia's Defense Ministry said it intercepted 323 drones across the country and Crimea between Tuesday night and Wednesday morning.
In Ukraine, a Russian drone attack killed a 56-year-old woman in the border region of Kharkiv, Ukrainian authorities reported.
