June 5 (UPI) -- At least five people were killed, including a child, and 28 injured after Russian forces launched more than 100 drones, guided bombs and missiles against seven Ukrainian regions overnight.
All of the fatalities occured in the northern city of Pryluky, a city of 51,500 people 90 miles east of Kyiv, where attack drones set residential areas on fire and razed houses, according to the the State Emergency Service.
Ukrainian Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko said three of those killed were the wife, daughter and 1-year-old grandson of Pryluky's fire chief whose home was struck as he was out directing the emergency response to the attack.
