MOSCOW — A drone strike on an industrial zone outside the Russian capital killed five people and wounded six others, the region's governor said as Moscow and Kyiv traded attacks.

 

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 and a further six wounded," he said on Telegram.

 

Drones also damaged a warehouse near Krasny Bor in northwestern Russia, wounding one person, according to Leningrad regional governor Aleksandr Drozdenko.

 

Wildberries said that a fire broke out at its Krasny Bor logistics facility as a result of the attack.

 

The governer Crimea said Tuesday that four people, including three civilians, were killed by an unidentified soldier in the Black Sea city of Sevastopol.

 

"A tragedy in Sevastopol... According to initial information, a soldier opened fire on his fellow servicemen, killing one person, before attacking civilians and killing three of them," Mikhail Razvozhayev wrote on Telegram, adding the assailant, whose nationality was not specified and whose motives were not immediately clear, was arrested.
