        Two people were killed, including a four-year old boy, in a Russian drone and missile barrage on the Kyiv region overnight into Sunday, while in Russia the regional governor of Kursk said 13 people were wounded when a Ukrainian missile shot down by Russian air defenses fell on a residential building.
        
        The bodies of a 35-year old man and his son were found under rubble after fragments of missiles fell on a residential area in Kyiv's suburban Brovary district, according to Ukraine's State Emergency Service. Another three people in the district were also injured in the attack.
        
        The attacks come as Ukraine's surprise military incursion into Russia's Kursk border region enters its sixth day. The border raid, which was indirectly acknowledged by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for the first time on Saturday, is unprecedented for its use of Ukrainian military units on Russian soil.
