MOSCOW (AA) - Ukrainian authorities reported on Sunday that three people were killed and eleven injured in a Russian strike on the eastern Kharkiv region.

Head of the Kharkiv Regional Civil-Military Administration Oleh Syniehubov said on Telegram that the air strike involved missiles, guided aerial bombs, and drones.

"Over the past day, the city of Kharkiv and 12 settlements of the Kharkiv region have been under enemy attacks. As a result of the shelling, three people were killed and 11 injured," he said.

In a separate statement, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said more than 200 Russian drones targeted multiple regions overnight.

"There were more than 200 drone strikes tonight. Sumy region, Kharkiv region, Dnipropetrovsk region, Zaporizhzhia, Khmelnytskyi, and Odesa regions were under attack," he said, urging international partners to provide better air defense capabilities, emphasizing the need for more missiles.
