KYIV: Russian forces conducted new air strikes overnight on targets in eastern, southern and northern Ukraine, Kyiv’s military said on Thursday.
There were no immediate reports of casualties.
The Air Force said seventeen different weapons, encompassing ballistic and cruise missiles and attack drones, had been used to strike infrastructure, industrial, civilian and military objects.
Ukrainian forces shot down three drones and one cruise missile, it further said.
Russia has carried out frequent air strikes since launching its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, including hitting populated areas far behind the front lines.
Moscow refutes deliberately targeting civilians. It did not immediately responded on the latest reported air strikes.
Ukraine began a counteroffensive in the southern and eastern regions in early June but has made only gradual progress against vast Russian minefields and heavily entrenched Russian forces.
