In the territories occupied by Russia, two people died in a Ukrainian drone attack in the Zaporizhia region and two others in Ukrainian artillery fire in the Kherson region, both in southern Ukraine, according to the Russian occupation authorities.

“Enemy drones attacked the village of Novokarlivka,” Yevgeny Balitsky, head of the Russian-occupied part of the Zaporizhia region, said on Telegram.

“A civilian car was hit, a man and a woman died,” he added, specifying that the couple left “four children (…) orphans”.

In the same region, another Ukrainian strike damaged an apartment building and injured three people in Tokmak, an important logistics hub for the Russian army, Mr. Balitski said in another message.

In the neighboring Kherson region, two people lost their lives in shelling by the Ukrainian army and a gas pipeline there was “damaged,” the head of the local occupation administration, Vladimir Saldo, said on Telegram.

In Russia itself, a Ukrainian drone injured four civilians traveling aboard a bus, including a 14-year-old teenager, in the village of Kurkovichi, in the Bryansk region, according to its governor Alexandre Bogomaz.

On the Ukrainian side, three people were killed and four injured in a Russian missile strike on the village of Udatchné and three others killed in those of Kurakhivka, Novooleksandrivka and Otcheretino, according to the regional prosecutor’s office and Governor Vadim Filachkine.

All these localities are located in the Donetsk region, where most of the fighting is concentrated.

A Russian attack on a train station in the Kharkiv region, in northeastern Ukraine, also left ten people injured, according to Governor Oleg Synegoubov.
