social media post on Sunday that a young woman died overnight in a hospital intensive care unit after debris from a drone fell on a house during the attack.<\/p>\n<p>Three other people were wounded overnight and more than 10 apartment buildings, private houses and a high school were damaged, he said, adding that air defences shot down 17 drones over Voronezh, a city of more than one million people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur city \u200dwas subjected \u2060to one of the heaviest drone attacks since the start of the special military operation,\u201d Gusev said on Telegram, using Moscow\u2019s term for its nearly four-year war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>There was no immediate comment from Ukraine about what happened in Voronezh, but it says it strikes targets inside Russia \u200cto \u200cdisrupt the Kremlin\u2019s war effort and respond to repeated missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian cities and infrastructure, including energy facilities.<\/p>\n<p>The attack came after Russia fired a hypersonic missile on Friday at a site in Ukraine near NATO member Poland, a strike Kyiv\u2019s European allies portrayed as an effort \u200dto deter them from continuing support for Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:22px\">The launch of the nuclear-capable Oreshnik missile followed reports of major progress in talks between Ukraine and its allies on how to defend the country from further aggression by Moscow if a US-led peace deal is struck.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Saturday in his nightly address that Ukrainian negotiators \u201ccontinue to communicate with the American side\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Chief negotiator Rustem Umerov was in contact with US partners on Saturday, he said.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, Ukraine\u2019s General Staff said Russia targeted Ukraine with 154 drones overnight into Sunday and 125 were shot down.<\/p>\n<p>In northwestern Ukraine\u2019s Zhytomyr region, Governor Vitalii Bunechko said overnight strikes targeted critical infrastructure facilities, resulting in the hospitalisation of two workers who sustained moderate injuries.<\/p>\n<p>Separately, Ukraine\u2019s State Emergency Service said four people were wounded in strikes on the village of Movchany, just south of the country\u2019s second largest city, Kharkiv, which is about 30km (18.6 miles) from the Russian
