Russian attacks targeted the communities of Esmanska, Myropilska, Krasnopilska, Hlukhivska, Bilopilska, Velykopysarivska, Shalyhynska, Yunakivska, Khotinska, according to the administration.

A total of  140 explosions were recorded across the nine communities, the post said, resulting from Russian mortar attacks, artillery shelling, and mines.

In the Esmanska community, a power line was damaged as a result of shelling and in the Myropilska community, a home and a tractor were damaged due to mortar attacks. No casualties among the civilian population were reported.
