Krasnodar drone debris kills two children, Russia says

Russian regional authorities said early Monday that debris from a Ukrainian drone attack fell on a private children's centre in Krasnodar, killing two children and wounding seven other children and two adults.

Krasnodar regional governor Veniamin Kondratyev said on Telegram that the debris hit the childcare facility in southern Russia. He also said a fire broke out at a warehouse after a drone fell on it.

Russian e-commerce company Ozon said Monday that a major fire was burning at one of its logistics centres in Krasnodar after a drone attack. The company said there were no casualties at the site.

Ukraine's military said Saturday it was starting a campaign targeting Ozon, after similar strikes against Russia's top online retailer Wildberries. Ozon reported attacks in recent days on locations in the Orenburg region, the outskirts of Saint Petersburg and the Samara region.

The latest attacks came as Ukraine prepared to mark the 35th anniversary of its independence and host a meeting of the Coalition of the Willing with European allies.

Uncertainty notes

The account of the drone attack, casualties and damage is attributed to Russian regional authorities and Ozon.
The source does not provide an independent verification of responsibility for the Krasnodar incidents.
