At least two people have been killed by Russian missile attacks in the southern Ukrainian port city of Odessa. A further eight were injured, the governor of the region, Oleh Kiper, announced on Telegram on Monday.
Civilian infrastructure, including several residential buildings, was damaged.
Previously, the city of Kharkiv, which is just over 30 kilometres from the Russian border, had been attacked with glide bombs, according to the authorities. Two civilians were injured in that attack. A multi-storey residential building was damaged.
Ukraine has been fending off a Russian invasion for over two years. The Russian army fires missiles and drones at the major cities of Kharkiv and Odessa on an almost daily basis.
