Drone Attack on Russian Beach Town Kills Seven, Including Three Children

A Ukrainian drone hit a beach resort in Gelendzhik, a Russian holiday town on the Black Sea, on August 3, 2026. Seven people died, including three children, and about 40 were hurt, Russian officials said. The town is far from the fighting. Ukraine has not commented. Hitting a civilian vacation spot during summer raises questions about the rules of war, which protect non-military areas.
