Russian forces carried out attacks on two Ukrainian regions, Kherson and Donetsk oblasts, over the past 24 hours, resulting in the deaths of two people and injuries to 34 others.

The strikes caused damage to residential buildings, various infrastructure facilities, and private vehicles. The source report did not specify a breakdown of casualties or damage between the two regions individually.

Both Kherson and Donetsk oblasts have long been subject to frequent Russian artillery, drone and missile attacks, as both regions lie close to the front line or are partially occupied. Civilians in these areas remain under constant risk, whether at home or moving through city streets.

Ukrainian authorities continue to gather information on the extent of the damage and the number of casualties to assess the overall situation in both regions.
