Overnight attack on southern port city wounded three, according to local governor; Russian strike that killed seven in Kherson will not go ‘unanswered’
Ukrainian forces are trying to pierce Russian lines in the western parts of Donetsk region, a Russian-installed official has said.
Vladimir Rogov, a Russian-installed official in parts of Zaporizhzhia controlled by Moscow, said that there had been intense fighting south of Velyka Novosilka as Ukrainian troops try to get through Russian lines to push down to the coast on the Sea of Azov as part of Kyiv’s counteroffensive.
As a result of the downing of the rockets that the Russians aimed at the centre of Odesa, debris damaged a dormitory of one of the educational institutions, a residential building and a supermarket.
The blast wave knocked out windows in several buildings and damaged cars parked nearby. Fires broke out at three facilities.”
