Russian airstrikes killed at least five people in several regions of Ukraine, regional officials said on Telegram on Tuesday evening.

Three people were killed and five injured in drone attacks in the Nikopol district of the Dnipropetrovsk region, according to local prosecutors.

In the neighbouring Zaporizhzhya region, a woman was killed and two people wounded in a glide bomb attack, Governor Ivan Fedorov said.

In the southern city of Kherson, one man was killed by Russian shelling, according to Governor Oleksandr Prokudin.

The reports could not be independently verified.

Ukraine has been defending itself against Russia's full-scale invasion for more than four years with Western support.
