(ANSA-AFP) - KYIV, JUN 10 - Three people were killed early Saturday in a fire sparked by falling debris from shot-down drones in the region of Odesa in southern Ukraine, regional officials said. "At night, the enemy attacked Odesa Region with attack drones," regional authorities said in a statement social media, referring to Russian forces. Ukraine's air defence forces destroyed all the unmanned aerial vehicles but their falling debris hit a high-rise residential building, sparking a fire, the statement said. "Unfortunately, there are victims among the civilian population," officials said, adding that three people were killed and another 26 -- including three children -- wounded. Separately, Ukraine's southern command said the fire was put out but the blast wave damaged several apartment buildings nearby. (ANSA-AFP).
