A Russian official said a Ukrainian drone hit a house in a Russian border village, killing five people, including two children. The June 29 incident occurred in Gorodishche, located just meters from the border with Ukraine. Aleksei Smirnov, governor of the Kursk region, said the incident appeared to come from a "copter"-style drone, fitted to carry explosives that are then dropped over targets. Both the Russian and Ukrainian sides have used drones, including larger self-detonating copters that can fly hundreds of kilometers. Ukraine had no immediate comment on the incident.
