Russian drone strike kills 5 as Moscow pledges response to Ukraine attacks
A Russian drone strike has killed five people in the northern town of Pryluky in Chernihiv region, including three members of one family, Ukrainian authorities said. Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko said on Thursday morning that a local first responder's wife, daughter and one-year-old grandson were killed in the attack. Regional Governor Viacheslav Chaus said the family was among five people killed when Russia launched six drones to attack the town overnight. Six others were admitted to hospital, he said. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy slammed the attacks and accused Moscow of "constantly trying to buy time for itself to continue killing. "When it does not feel strong enough condemnation and pressure from the world – it kills again," he wrote on X. Zelenskyy said Russia launched 103 drones and one ballistic missile overnight targeting the Donetsk, Kharkiv, Odesa, Sumy, Chernihiv, Dnipro and Kherson regions. "This is yet another reason to impose maximum sanctions and put pressure together.
