Mstyslav Chernov Instagram – Ukrainian officials on Saturday morning reported more civilian casualties from Russian shelling in the country’s east and south.
The attacks came as a visit by Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez began in Kyiv in a show of continuing support from the European Union for Ukraine.
In the southern Kherson region, artillery fire by Russian forces destroyed two houses.
Two children and one woman were taken to hospital to be treated for shell-shock.
Saturday’s attack came after five people including a child were wounded on Friday and overnight in the Kherson region in the south, according to Gov. Oleksandr Prokudin.
He said Russian forces launched 82 artillery, drone, mortar shell and rocket attacks on the province, which is cut in two by a stretch of the 1,500-kilometer (930 mile) front line and still reeling from flooding unleashed by the collapse earlier this month of a major Dnipro river dam.
Since last November when Russian forces retook the city of Kherson, Russian forces have continued daily attacks on the province.
