A drone strike hits a crowded beach on Russia’s Black Sea coast, with officials reporting multiple casualties. According to Russian authorities, the incident occurs on Monday at a packed beach in the southern Russian resort area near Gelendzhik. The Russian side says at least seven people are killed and dozens are injured, though reports emphasize that injuries are substantial and the exact figures may be subject to confirmation. One outlet includes video footage showing the moment of impact, depicting the drone striking the beach in a crowded area. Both reports frame the event as an attack involving a drone and describe the immediate impact on beachgoers. The accounts do not provide independent details about who operated the drone or the wider military context, and they focus primarily on the reported death toll, the scale of injuries, and the location on the Black Sea coast. Russian officials are cited as the source for casualty numbers.
