“A Ukrainian drone today struck the village of Korenevo in the Korenevsky district,“ acting governor of the Kursk region, Alexander Khinshtein, said on the Telegram messaging app. “A 63-year-old correspondent, Lu Yuguang, who went to the border area on his own, was injured.”
Russia’s foreign ministry called on the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and other international organisations to “promptly respond and give a proper assessment” of the incident.
Reuters could not independently verify the reports. There was no immediate response from Ukraine’s foreign ministry and President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s office to Reuters’ request for comment outside business hours.
Asked about the report on Friday, China’s foreign ministry said it was “deeply concerned” and called on all parties to work towards a political settlement of the Ukraine crisis and promote de-escalation of the situation.
Lu told Russia’s state news agencies that he was feeling fine.
Russia and Ukraine have launched numerous cross-border attacks since the start of the war. Parts of Kursk were seized and occupied by Ukrainian forces in a surprise offensive in August 2024 before they were driven out earlier this year.
