KYIV, Ukraine, Feb 27, 2026 (AFP) : A Russian drone killed two people in a home in eastern Ukraine overnight in an area where Moscow’s forces are pushing to capture more territory, local authorities said Friday.
The emergency services said the house was completely destroyed in the village of Pidserednie, in the northeast Kharkiv region.
They posted images of firefighters dousing flames billowing from the burning structure.
Rescue workers had retrieved the bodies of a man and a woman from under the rubble and one more person was wounded, they said.
Russian forces have been pushing to retake the nearby town of Kupiansk, which Moscow captured in 2022 but was later retaken by Ukrainian troops.
