Two people have been killed in a Russian drone attack in the Sumy region of northern Ukraine.

The man and woman had been travelling along a dirt track on Thursday morning in the village of Velyka Pysarivka, just a few kilometres from the Russian border, the regional public prosecutor’s office said.

Ukraine has been defending itself against Russia for more than four years with Western assistance.

The Sumy region, which borders Russia, is often the target of Russian attacks.
