KABUL (Pajhwok): At least 13 people were killed and several others injured in reciprocal Russian and Ukrainian attacks over the past 24 hours, according to reports. Reuters said Russian strikes on several Ukrainian regions, including Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia, killed at least 10 people. Ukrainian officials said the attacks involved missiles, guided bombs and drones, damaging residential buildings and civilian infrastructure. Meanwhile, Russian authorities said Ukrainian drone attacks on Russia’s border regions killed at least three people.
