3 people killed, at least 21 wounded in Moscow restaurant bombing, Russian officials say Kyiv, which denies targeting civilians, says the strikes are fair retaliation for deadly Russian bombardment of its own territory and are aimed at pressuring Moscow into negotiations.
Ukrainian shelling of Russia's Belgorod region bordering Ukraine left three dead, while a separate drone attack on the Saratov region bordering Kazakhstan killed two others, regional authorities said.
Three were killed in a drone strike on a car in Russia's Udmurtia region, more than 1,000 kilometres (600 miles) from the front line, the region's acting governor Olga Abramova said on Telegram.
Russian attacks on Kyiv kill 9, wound more than two dozen "This act is monstrous in its senselessness.
These people were definitely not a military target," she said.
Russian air defence systems intercepted 635 Ukrainian drones overnight, the Russian defence ministry said.
