A Ukrainian drone strike on the central Russian region of Tatarstan killed at least 12 people in one of Kiev’s most deadly single attacks of the more than four-year war.
“According to the latest information, 12 people have been killed and 39 wounded as a result of the drone attack,” on the city of Nizhnekamsk, the regional press service said in a statement on Aug. 10.
More than 1,000 kilometers from the Ukrainian border, the region is rich in energy resources and has many major oil refineries that Kiev has been targeting in retaliatory strikes.
