Russian drone attacks overnight in several Ukrainian cities killed two people and wounded at least 11 others, as well as damaging residential buildings and infrastructure, Ukrainian officials said on Wednesday.
In the eastern city of Dnipro, two people were killed by Russian attacks, regional military administration chief Olexander Hanzha said on Telegram. Six people were injured. Residential buildings, a food depot, and cars were damaged.
In the north-eastern Sumy region, several buildings were hit in the city of Konotop, regional military governor Oleh Hryhorov said on Telegram. At least six people were injured.
Ukrainian media cited Konotop Mayor Artem Semenikhin as saying that a shortage of ambulances meant some of the wounded were being transported to hospitals in private vehicles. A museum was also damaged in the attack.
In the southern port city of Odessa, multi-storey residential buildings and vehicles were damaged, local military administration head Serhiy Lysak said on Telegram. One building was destroyed. No information on casualties was initially available.
The reports could not be independently verified.
The Ukrainian gas supplier Naftogaz also reported that its infrastructure in the Chernihiv region of northern Ukraine had been attacked for the fourth day in a row.
Dnipro and Odessa have frequently come under Russian missile and drone attacks since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine more than four years ago.
