Six people were killed and four injured in missile strikes on Russia’s Belgorod region overnight, the region’s acting governor, Alexander Shuvaev, said on Telegram early on Monday. The strikes damaged a building and a car in the village of Koloskovo in Valuysky district near the border with Ukraine, and a 14-year-old child among the injured was taken to hospital.

Shuvaev said two other injured people received medical assistance at the scene. The governor’s statement followed an earlier night that officials described as the year’s “largest-scale” attack by Ukraine, in which at least seven people were killed, while Russian strikes on Ukraine that same night killed at least seven people and injured more than 39.
