Thirteen people were injured in the Ukrainian attack on Russia's Kursk region, with two in critical condition, Acting Governor of Kursk region Alexei Smirnov said on his Telegram channel Sunday.

Smirnov said that the incident occurred when a missile intercepted by Russian defense systems fell onto a residential building, triggering a fire.

Initial reports indicated that the building's structural integrity remains intact. To date, 15 people have been rescued.
