A 52-year-old employee of a pharmaceutical warehouse belonging to Indian owners was killed in a <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/world-news/article/russia-ukraine-war-russia-strikes-kyiv-bridge-as-germany-announces-new-military-aid-for-ukraine-23653300" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Russian strike in Ukraine</a>'s Sumy, according to local media.
Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Sunday expressed his condolences to the family of the man killed in the attack.
"This morning, the Russians once again struck the <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/world-news/photo/in-photos-russia-strikes-kyivs-northern-bridge-traffic-disrupted-across-ukrainian-capital-113383/1#google_vignette" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Pivnichnyi Bridge in Kyiv</a> with a drone. They attacked an ordinary pharmaceutical warehouse in Sumy with drones. Tragically, one person was killed. My condolences to the family and loved ones," he said.
The Ukrainian Embassy in India identified the pharmaceutical factory as Indian owned.
"The aggressor does not care that this is not a military target. It does not care that this is a pharmaceutical factory producing critically needed medicines," the Ukrainian Embassy said on X.
"The barbarians do not care that the factory belongs to Indian owners. The hypocrites continue talking about the 'historic friendship' between India and Muscovy. In reality, death and destruction are the true face of Russian fascism, hidden behind the mask," it further said.
"Our deepest condolences go to the family of the person who was killed. We also express our sincere sympathy to the Indian owners over the destruction of their factory," it added.
The Kyiv Independent identified the factory employee killed as a 52-year-old man. It said three others were injured in the attack.

Jaishankar's comments at an event came days after Russian President Vladimir Putin said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has "good ideas" to find a mutually acceptable solution to the conflict.
