Four people were killed and five were wounded in Russian shelling in Ukraine's southern region of Kherson on Thursday, Ukrainian officials said.
Ukrainian Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko said more than 60 residential and infrastructure buildings were damaged in the attack.
"It is preliminarily known that the shelling was carried out with cluster munitions," Andriy Yermak, the head of Ukraine's presidential office, said on Telegram. VOA could not independently verify that report.
The Russian army abandoned Kherson late last year but still regularly targets the area from the eastern bank of the Dnipro River.
Meanwhile, Russian state television said Thursday one of its journalists died after being hurt in a Ukrainian drone attack in the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia region of southern Ukraine.
The Russian network announced the death of Boris Maksudov a day after the Russian defense ministry said he was hit while working in Zaporizhzhia.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy used part of his nightly address Wednesday to highlight new military aid packages from allies that he said include help for his country's air defenses.
Zelenskyy said the aid would better protect Ukraine's cities and towns from Russian attacks and that "Ukraine's sky shield is getting more powerful literally every month."
