MOSCOW, Aug 20, 2023 (BSS/AFP) - A Ukrainian drone attack hit a train station in the western Russian city of Kursk, injuring five people, the regional governor said early Sunday. "A Ukrainian drone attack in Kursk," Roman Starovoyt said on Telegram. Both sides in the conflict -- which started in February 2022 -- have recently reported regular drone incursions, as Ukraine enacts a counteroffensive aimed at reclaiming Russian-held territory. A Russian missile strike on Ukraine's northern city of Chernihiv killed seven people and wounded 144 on Saturday, according to President Volodymyr Zelensky. The strike came during the Orthodox holiday of the Transfiguration of the Lord, as some attended morning church services in the city.
