Ukrainian drone attack kills one, injures one in Russia's Belgorod region

(Reuters) - A Ukrainian drone attack struck a car in Russia's border region of Belgorod, killing one person and injuring another, the regional governor said early on Thursday.

The governor, Vyacheslav Gladkov, writing on the Telegram messaging app, said the man was killed in the town of Graivoron, near the Ukrainian border. The injured man was taken to hospital.

Ukrainian forces have frequently launched attacks on Belgorod and other border regions in the three-year-old conflict. Ukrainian troops made a mass incursion last August into Kursk region and still hold a chunk of territory.
