Russia has killed three Ukrainians in 24 hours, accusing Kyiv of violating the agreement News of the Russia-Ukraine war

Russia says Ukraine has committed more than 1,000 violations since the three-day ceasefire came into force on Saturday.

At least three people have been killed in a Russian attack on Ukraine in the past 24 hours despite US President Donald Trump canceling a three-day ceasefire that began on May 9.

Regional authorities on Sunday reported one death in Ukraine’s Zaporizhia, Dnipropetrovsk, and Kherson regions.

In the Kherson region, a 58-year-old woman was killed in a Russian airstrike on the village of Nezlamne on May 9, according to the Kherson Oblast Prosecutor’s Office.

Governor Oleksandr Prokudin confirmed the death on the Telegraph, saying that the woman was beaten while walking on the street. Seven people, including a child, have also been injured across the region in airstrikes or artillery attacks since early Saturday, he added.

Ivan Fedorov, the governor of the southeastern region of Zaporizhia, said one person had been killed and three others wounded by terrorist attacks and drone strikes in the past 24 hours.

In the northeastern region of Kharkiv, Governor Oleh Syniehubov said eight people, including two children, were injured in a drone attack on the city of Kharkiv and nearby villages.

In Dnipropetrovsk region, a 46-year-old woman was killed and another injured on Saturday in Mezhivska district near the city of Synelnykove, according to Governor Oleksandr Hanza. On Sunday, another child was injured in a nearby area, he said.

Kyiv’s military said Russia launched 27 long-range drones in Ukraine overnight, a smaller number than in recent days, and that air defense intercepted all of them.

The General Staff of Ukraine said in its daily statement that 147 clashes took place on the front in the last 24 hours.

Russian objections

The Russian Defense Ministry said on Sunday that Ukraine had committed more than 1,000 violations of the law by launching military and weapons attacks against its military and civilian targets in several regions of Russia.

The ministry said the protests were recorded in Russia-held Ukraine’s Crimea, as well as the Russian regions of Belgorod, Kursk, Kaluga, Rostov, and Krasnodar. The Russian military says it shot down 57 Ukrainian drones.

“Despite the cease-fire announcement, the Ukrainian armed forces continued to strike using drones and artillery against the positions of our troops, as well as civilian targets,” the ministry said. The Russian military “took action”, it added.

Two people are said to have been injured by Ukrainian bullets in the Kherson region of Ukraine that was controlled by Russia, according to Vladimir Saldo, the head of the Moscow region.
