Dec 8 (Reuters) - At least seven people were injured when Russian drones struck an apartment block in the northeastern Ukrainian city of Okhtyrka in the Sumy region, Governor Oleh Hryhorov said on Monday.

The Sumy region, which borders Russia, has faced near-daily shelling and drone attacks since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, a war now nearing its fourth year.
