Kharkiv region

 In the northeast Ukrainian Kharkiv region, an overnight Russian strike injured five people, including a three-year old child.

Russia and Ukraine said they downed dozens of drones overnight, as both launched overnight attacks on each other's targets behind the stretched frontlines.

Drones -- both attack craft packed with explosives and those with advanced cameras for reconnaissance -- have been used extensively throughout the two-year war.

Ukraine's air force said Russia fired 37 Iranian-style "Shahed" kamikaze drones and three missiles at its territory overnight.

"As a result of combat operations, 33 'Shaheds' were shot down in the Kirovograd, Odesa, Kherson, Mykolaiv and Kharkiv regions," it said in a post on Telegram.
