Ukraine launched drone attacks across several regions of Russia, striking two residential houses in the Tambov region and injuring several people, Russia said, APA reports citing Reuters.
The regional head, Evgeny Pervyshov, said on the Telegram people were treated for injures resulting from shattered windows as drones hit two houses in the town of Kotovsk, some 480 kilometres (300 miles) southeast of Moscow.
He added that the buildings were only slightly damaged, and the inhabitants were offered temporary housings.
Separately, Russia's defence ministry said it intercepted and destroyed 85 Ukrainian drones overnight in several regions of the country, including 31 drones over the Black Sea, 16 each in the Voronezh and Krasnodar regions and 14 over the Azov Sea.
