Russian city Voronezh declares emergency after Ukrainian drone attack

The mayor of the southern Russian city of Voronezh declared a state of emergency on Tuesday after what officials said was a Ukraine-launched drone attack that damaged several buildings and wounded a child, reported from Reuters.

People from at least one apartment building were evacuated to a nearby school after drone debris sparked a small fire and blew out windows, Mayor Vadim Kstenin said on the Telegram messaging app.

"A commission will assess the damage to the affected house and the neighboring ones, as well as to the territory—both real and movable property," Kstenin said on social media.
