MOSCOW, Oct 13, (Xinhua): A woman was killed after a Ukrainian drone attacked a vehicle in the Rylsky district of Russia's Kursk region, regional governor Alexander Khinshtein said on Sunday. A drone attacked a civilian vehicle on the road section between the villages of Lomakino and Akimovka in the Rylsky district.

"There were four people in the car. To our profound sorrow, a 40-year-old woman was killed at the scene as a result of the attack," Khinshtein wrote on his Telegram channel, adding that the other three passengers were unhurt. He urged people to refrain from traveling to the border areas. Earlier in the day, six civilians were injured when a Ukrainian drone hit a passenger bus in the Donetsk region.
