Russia attacked Ukraine with drones killed atleast eight people, after a day of strikes on cities in which at least four people were killed and a US warning that it will hold Russia accountable for war crimes.

It is reported that Russia has launched a series of “kamikaze” drone attacks across Ukraine in recent weeks, striking civilian infrastructure and sowing terror in Ukrainian cities far from the frontlines of the war. The attack comes even as Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned of nuclear attack.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Russian forces also targeted infrastructure across Ukraine in the second wave of air strikes in a week, which like the first came in the morning as people went to work and school.

Earlier on Monday, Ukrainian soldiers fired into the air trying to shoot down drones, and as residents raced for shelter, after blasts rocked the capital Kyiv.

The plane struck a residential area of Yeysk, a town in southwest Russia, according to Russian authorities. The final toll was 13 dead and 19 injured, the ministry of emergency situations, quoted by Russian news agencies, said as the search for survivors ended early Tuesday after the crash caused a massive fire in a residential area.
