A drone attack happened in a part of Russia called Tatarstan.

Some people from a country called Uzbekistan were hurt in the attack.

The Uzbekistan consulate said seven of its citizens died.

Local Russian officials said at least 13 people died, including a child.

They also said 39 people were hurt.

The attack happened in the city of Nizhnekamsk and hit factories and places where people live.

Many people from Uzbekistan work in Russia, and the money they send home helps their country.

Uzbekistan wants to stay friends with Russia, but it also says Ukraine should keep its land.

That makes this a very careful balancing act.

Everyone is sad about the people who lost their lives.
