A civilian was injured after FPV drones allegedly launched by Ukrainian forces struck a settlement in Russia’s Bryansk Region, local authorities said.

According to the governor of the region, Alexander Bogomaz, the attack targeted the settlement of Klimovo in the Klimovsky District.

Bogomaz said a moving car was deliberately struck during the attack.

The injured man was hospitalised, and his vehicle sustained damage, the governor said.

Bryansk Region, which borders Ukraine, has repeatedly come under attack since the start of the conflict. Authorities have introduced both a counterterrorism operation regime and a state of emergency in the region.
