Four people, including a child, were killed when a Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicle crashed among beachgoers on a crowded beach in Russia’s Krasnodar region on Monday morning.

The incident occurred near Gelendzhik in the Krasnodar region, according to Russian authorities. The regional governor said the casualties were caused by falling drone debris after the aircraft was intercepted, rather than by a direct strike.
