(Reuters) – Russian attacks on Wednesday killed two people near the front line in Ukraine’s eastern Donetsk region and one near the Black Sea port of Odesa, officials said.
Ukraine’s Emergency Services, writing on Telegram, said a house was shelled in the town of Druzhkivka, south of the city of Kramatorsk in Donetsk region, killing two people. One body was found under rubble.
Kramatorsk would be a key Russian objective as Moscow’s forces advance gradually westward as part of a plan to capture the Donbas, made up of Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
Odesa regional Governor Oleh Kiper, writing on Telegram, said a missile attack killed one man and badly injured another outside an unfinished building near the port.
