More than 10 killed as Russia and Ukraine trade heavy attacks

Exchange of fire intensifies as war, now in its fifth year, shows no signs of slowing down. At least nine people have been killed in Russia and three in Ukraine, according to local officials from each side, as both countries continue to exchange attacks. Veniamin Kondratyev, the governor of Russia’s southern region of Krasnodar, said at least six people were killed and 40 wounded by falling drone debris after a Ukrainian attack on the Black Sea resort city of Gelendzhik on Monday. His statement on Telegram came hours after the Moscow-installed governor of Russian-occupied Crimea, Sergei Aksyonov, said three people were killed and two wounded in a Ukrainian attack overnight, without giving further details. In Ukraine, at least three people were killed in a Russian attack on a gas station in the Dnipropetrovsk region, which has been repeatedly attacked during the war, now in its fifth year.
