The incident occurred when a missile intercepted by Russian defense systems fell onto a residential building, sparking a fire.

Governor Smirnov shared the update on his Telegram channel on Sunday, confirming that initial reports suggest the building's structural integrity remains intact. Rescue efforts have so far saved 15 people from the affected area.

The attack follows a series of escalating military actions in the region. On Saturday, Ukraine's Main Intelligence Directorate reported that Ukrainian forces destroyed a Russian KS-701 Tunets high-speed boat in the Black Sea near Crimea. The Directorate claimed that Ukrainian forces have successfully targeted 18 Russian vessels with Magura V5 drones during the ongoing conflict, destroying nine of them.

The situation in the Kursk region and the broader conflict in the Black Sea continue to develop as tensions between Russia and Ukraine remain high. (ILKHA)
