A late-night drone strike linked to Ukraine has killed three members of a family in Russia’s Vladimir region, local officials have confirmed.
According to regional governor Alexander Avdeev, the attack hit an apartment in the Alexandrovsky district, claiming the lives of two adults and their 12-year-old son.
Their five-year-old daughter survived but suffered severe burns. She has been rushed to hospital, where doctors are working to stabilise her condition.
The incident highlights the growing human cost of the war, as strikes increasingly affect residential areas far from the front lines.
Details about the drone attack remain limited, and there has been no immediate comment from Ukrainian officials.
However, such cross-border strikes have become more frequent as the conflict drags on.
While much of the fighting has been concentrated inside Ukraine, attacks inside Russia have raised fears of further escalation.
Civilian casualties, like those reported in this case, continue to deepen the humanitarian impact on both sides.
The tragedy in the Vladimir region is yet another reminder that beyond the military targets and political strategies, ordinary families are paying the highest price.
