Russia targeted Ukrainian cities with cruise missiles in the early hours on Monday that Ukraine’s army chief said were mostly intercepted.
At least 34 people were reported hurt by a missile strike in Ukraine’s central Dnipropetrovsk region. The barrage of attacks comes as Ukraine prepares for another ground offensive against Russian forces.
Ukraine pushed back Russian troops from some positions in the eastern city of Bakhmut, where fierce battles have raged for months, according to the commander of its ground forces.
The attacks with long-range air- and sea-based missiles were aimed at Ukrainian factories producing ammunition, weapons and military equipment, the Defense Ministry in Moscow said. “All the designated targets were hit,” the statement said.
