A Russian drone hit a residential building in Vinnytsia Oblast on the evening of March 14, killing one person and injuring at least four others, Governor Serhii Borzov reported on Telegram.

In an earlier message, Borzov said that three people had been hospitalized. "Four people were hospitalized," and "one person died," Borzov said later in the evening.

"All services are working at the scene," and the clearance of debris is ongoing, Borzov said.  

Vinnytsia Oblast lies in the central-western part of Ukraine, some 300 kilometers (180 miles) from the front line.

The announcement of the latest attack came amid an air raid alert in the region and a warning from the Air Force that Shahed-type "kamikaze" drones are moving west.

Explosions were heard also in the neighboring Khmelnytskyi Oblast, Suspilne reported.

"Today, employees of the Police Department, together with the National Security Agency and with the support of international partners, conducted a targeted and coordinated operation aimed at preventing, detecting, and neutralizing illegal activities on the territory of Montenegro," Montenegro's police said.

The latest announcement comes as Kyiv experienced widespread power outages on Oct. 8 following a Russian attack on Ukrainian energy infrastructure. Over 3 million residents in the capital lost power in what officials described as "an attack on one of the energy facilities important for the city of Kyiv."

The railway operator initially reported that the passenger train's driver suffered a leg injury and four passengers required medical attention. The crew of the electric locomotive was unharmed.
