Russian drone attack kills four in Ukraine’s Kyiv region

A Russian ​drone attack on a food factory ‌in a region surrounding the Ukrainian capital Kyiv killed four people, Ukrainian officials said on Friday.

The ​attack caused a fire at an ​administrative building on the premises of ⁠the enterprise, and parts of its ​structure have been destroyed, the regional governor Mykola Kalashnyk ​said.

"The enemy attacked a peaceful civilian food industry enterprise. People who were simply going about ​their work at their workplaces at ​the time," he said on the Telegram messaging ‌app.

⁠Seven other people were injured in the attack and two people could still be under the rubble, Kalashnyk said.

​Emergency services ​said the ⁠search and rescue operation continued at the site. They ​posted pictures of a building with ​a ⁠gaping hole and firefighters dousing flames.

One of the pictures showed a sign ⁠with ​the name of a ​local dairy maker, which makes baby milk food.
