Ukrainian Drone Strike Hits Russian Black Sea Resort, Killing Seven

A Ukrainian drone struck a beach resort in Gelendzhik, a Russian Black Sea holiday town, on August 3, 2026, killing seven — including three children — and injuring about 40, Russian officials said. The town lies well behind Russian front lines. Ukraine has not commented. Striking a civilian vacation area during peak summer raises questions under international humanitarian law, which governs acceptable targets in war.
