Ukraine's drone attack on Kazan, the capital of the Tatarstan region, came on Saturday morning. There are no reports of people being injured. The city has a population of over 1.3 million.

The governor of Tatarstan, Rustam Minnichanov's press spokesperson, states that the city was attacked by eight drones. Six are said to have hit residential buildings, one was shot down, and one hit an industrial facility, according to the statement.

Russia's Defense Ministry accuses Ukraine of targeting "civilian infrastructure" in Kazan.

Ukraine has not commented on the reports.

Eight people, including a 12-year-old, were injured in Russian drone attacks on the city of Kharkiv in northeastern Ukraine on Friday evening, according to local authorities.

A nine-story apartment building is one of the buildings that were damaged in the Russian attacks that targeted several central city districts in Kharkiv late in the evening.

Ukrainian police are investigating the attacks as war crimes and claim that Russia targeted civilians.

Russia has sent a total of 113 drones over Ukraine during the night towards Saturday, according to Ukrainian representatives.
