At least 13 killed in Ukrainian drone attack in Russia

A day of mourning has been declared in Tatarstan following a Ukrainian drone attack in Nizhnekamsk that killed at least 13 people, including a child, and injured 39 others. The attack targeted an oil facility critical to Russia’s exports, prompting regional head Rustam Minnikhanov to condemn it as “barbaric.” Russia’s defense ministry reported intercepting over 450 drones, while Ukraine claimed the attack aimed to disrupt Russia’s war economy. In retaliation, a massive artillery strike in Kharkiv resulted in at least five fatalities.
