KYIV, May 23 (Reuters) – A Russian drone struck a funeral procession on Saturday on the outskirts of the northeast Ukrainian city of Sumy, killing one person and injuring nine, a senior local official said.

Oleh Hryhorov, head of the regional military administration, did not provide further details. Local media reported that a guided attack drone had hit the road near a bus.

Sumy is located 30 km (19 miles) from the border and has been regularly attacked by Russian missiles and drones in recent years of the war.
