Other Russian strikes were reported near Siversk and Sloviansk in the east, as well as in the Mykolaiv region in the south.

"High-precision ground weapons hit a temporary deployment point of the Ukrainian Armed Forces artillery unit and an ammunition depot on the territory of the ceramic factory in the city of Sloviansk," the Russian military said.
