At least 11 people were reported killed in new Russian and Ukrainian strikes linked to the war, according to the latest accounts from the region. Among the dead were children after a holiday camp in the Russian-held east of Ukraine was hit.

The reported attacks involved drones and took place overnight into Friday. The deaths underscore how areas far from the front line can still face sudden and deadly strikes, including sites where civilians are present.

In a separate development, reports said at least eight people were killed in Ukrainian attacks on a Russian-controlled area. The incidents appear to be part of a wider exchange of strikes as both sides continue cross-border and long-range attacks.

The fresh casualties add to the toll from the conflict, with civilian sites again caught up in the violence. Details remained limited in the immediate aftermath, but the attacks highlighted the continuing danger in occupied parts of eastern Ukraine as well as in other areas affected by the fighting.
