Ukrainian Drone Strike Kills Two in Russia’s Chuvashia Region

Authorities said two people were killed and more than 30 were injured after the strike damaged over 20 apartment buildings.

  • On Tuesday, a Ukrainian F-5 Flamingo missile and drone strike hit a military production site in Chuvashia, killing two people and wounding 32 others in the regional capital of Cheboskary.
  • Regional head Oleg Nikolaev declared a state of emergency following the strike, which damaged more than 20 apartment buildings; Zelensky claimed the facility supplied navigation components for missiles and military vehicles.
  • Prime Minister Oleg Artamonov noted "several victims" remained under medical supervision while authorities halted public transit and moved schools to online classes as the threat persisted Tuesday.
  • Ukraine announced a unilateral cease-fire for May 5 to 6 and said it would act reciprocally "from that moment," though Russian strikes elsewhere killed at least five people.
  • The strike occurred about 600 miles from the border as Moscow prepares for Victory Day festivities on May 9, with Russia planning to scale back events due to security concerns.
