Emergency services in Russian-held parts of Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia region said a Ukrainian drone strike on Tuesday killed four people in a car north of the town of Melitopol.

The officials, quoted by Russia's RIA news agency, said the attack occurred in the village of Myrne.

The Russia-installed governor of occupied parts of the Kherson region, Vladimir Saldo, said Ukrainian shelling injured five people in a market in the town of Kakhovka.
