The attack was part of the latest wave of Kievs drone strikes targeting the city of Belgorod

A video showing a Ukrainian drone slamming into a building in the Russian city of Belgorod has surfaced online. The strike was part of a wave of Ukrainian attacks that targeted the the Russian border region in recent days.

The plane-type UAV can be seen zeroing in on its target, and the sound of a powerful explosion can be heard moments later, shaking the nearby area. It is unclear whether this particular strike resulted in any casualties.

Several people were injured in a series of Ukrainian drone strikes on Thursday, Belgorod Region Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said. The UAVs damaged the official's office as well as the regional parliament building. One drone also struck a passenger car in Belgorod, injuring three civilians. Several residential buildings and a store were also damaged in the attacks.

The region also faced a similar attack on Wednesday that left eight civilians injured, according to Gladkov.

During another Ukrainian attack on Thursday that targeted Rostov-on-Don, a bustling of over 1 million people some 240 kilometers from Ukraine, a drone hit an apartment complex, injuring 13 people.
