Russia “continues to conduct offensive operations” in the eastern regions of Ukraine, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said in its daily update on Monday.
In the Kharkiv region to the northeast, Russia is firing on areas north and northeast of the city, the Ukrainian military said.
A separate update from the regional authorities said that “the night was relatively calm” with “sporadic shelling”, adding that three people were injured in villages northeast of Kharkiv.
Russia has carried out air strikes and artillery fire in the Sumy region in the northeast, the military said. Some regional updates say Sumi said there were no casualties.
In southern Ukraine, in the Krivoy Rog region, Russia continues to fire artillery on Ukrainian troops and is waging a “counter-battery battle,” the military said.
About 85km (53 miles) southwest of Krivoy Rog, regional authorities said the center of Novi Buh was shelled during the night, injuring two people and damaging a shop, a pharmacy and some residential buildings. Further south, shelling continues against Bereznehuvate, where school and apartment buildings have been damaged.
In the southern region of Kherson, a regional update says fighting continues and “the situation is tense” in nearby villages. In the villages bordering the districts of Nikolaev and Dnepropetrovsk, there is no water and electricity, the statement added.
On the Black Sea coast west of the Odessa region, a regional update said there were two missile strikes, one at night and one on Monday morning. One missile was shot down by Ukrainian air defense forces. A non-functioning bridge without casualties was also hit, but several homes were damaged, the statement said.
