On June 17, multiple drone attacks resulted in civilian casualties across different regions. In Ukraine's Chernihiv region, a Russian drone exploded near a store in the village of Novi Borovychi, injuring a 68-year-old woman with shrapnel wounds. Similarly, in Russia's Kursk region near the Ukrainian border, a 48-year-old woman died from shrapnel injuries sustained during a Ukrainian drone attack. In Syria's Tartus Governorate, a Syrian woman died after an Iranian drone, intercepted and shot down during Israeli-Iranian aerial confrontations, crashed into her home, marking the first civilian death linked to this conflict. The incident in Syria is part of escalating Israeli-Iranian hostilities involving drones and missiles, with multiple interceptions and debris falling across Syrian provinces but limited casualties besides this case.
