Three people injured in Russian attacks in Ukraine's south, southeast, officials say
Russian drone attacks injured three people in Ukraine's south and southeast overnight, Ukrainian officials said on Tuesday.
Two people were injured in the Dnipropetrovsk region, Governor Serhiy Lysak said on Tuesday.
'Air defense forces were working during the night in the Dnipropetrovsk,' he said on the Telegram messaging app, adding that five drones had been shot down over the region.
The attack sparked a fire in a private house and an outbuilding in one district of the region and destroyed an agricultural enterprise, a private house, and a car in another.
Nikopol district also came under FPV, artillery and drone attack, Lysak said.
A 59-year-old man was injured in a morning drone attack on the southern city of Kherson, the military administration said.
In the northeastern city of Sumy, a drone strike sparked a fire in a building of an industrial enterprise. A later air strike damaged at least seven private and one two-storey buildings and cars in another area, the military administration said. There were no casualties, it added.
Russia, which began its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, did not immediately comment on the reports.

Several People Injured in Russian Attack in Ukraine's Northeast
Russian forces launched a massive drone attack overnight that injured several people, including two teenagers, in Ukraine's northeastern Kharkiv region, local officials said on Friday. Eight people, including two 16-year-olds, were injured in an attack in the village of Vasyliv Khutir, Governor Oleh Syniehubov said. He gave no further details, Reuters said. The Ukrainian Air Force said that Russia launched 90 drones and two ballistic missiles overnight against Ukraine that targeted the Kharkiv, Odesa and Donetsk regions. The Kharkiv region's main city also came under Russian drone attack which targeted a trolleybus depot and injured two people, Mayor Ihor Terekhov said. "Today, Kharkiv suffered another attack: the enemy fired 8 'shaheds' at one of the depots where our trolleybuses were being repaired and maintained," he said on the Telegram messaging app. He added that more than 30 nearby apartment buildings were damaged, while one trolleybus was completely destroyed, and 18 others sustained varying degrees of damage. Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city situated some 30 km (19 miles) from the country's northeastern border, has been a repeated target of Russian air attacks. Reuters could not independently verify the reports. There was no immediate comment from Russia. Both sides deny targeting civilians in the war that Russia started with its full-scale invasion of Ukraine more than three years ago.
