Sept 21 (Reuters) – Russian forces continued their attacks on different Ukrainian regions along the ​1,200-km (775-mile) frontline of the ‌4-1/2-year-old war on Monday, killing at least five people, regional officials said.

Prosecutors in northeastern Kharkiv Region said a ‌drone ​strike on the ⁠town of Lozova ⁠killed one person and injured three.

Further south in Dnipropetrovsk region, a drone killed a car ​driver in Nikopol, which is a frequent Russian target ⁠on the west ⁠bank of the Dnipro ​River opposite the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear ​power plant.

In Donetsk Region, a ‌focal point of many frontline clashes, a Russian strike badly damaged an apartment building in ⁠the strategic Kramatorsk, killing one person. Another person was killed in a nearby village.

And ⁠a ‌sustained attack on a ⁠village in Mykolaiv Region ​near ‌the Black Sea coast ​killed a ⁠3-year-old child.

Reuters could not independently verify attacks from either side. Both sides deny targeting civilians.
