At least five people were killed and 10 injured in a drone strike on an industrial zone near Moscow, the regional governor said, as attacks between Russia and Ukraine escalate.

Ukraine has conducted long-range strikes targeting civilian infrastructure in Russia, and in recent weeks stepped up attacks on warehouses belonging to the Russian e-commerce giant Wildberries.

Ukraine often fires hundreds of drones into Russia each night, in retaliation for Russia launching hundreds of its own drones and dozens of missiles at Ukrainian towns and cities.

Moscow's regional governor Andrey Vorobyov said early Tuesday that several fires broke out following a drone strike in the Novoselki industrial zone outside the Russian capital.

"According to preliminary information, five people were killed," he said on Telegram, adding that 10 others were wounded.
