Further strikes injured a 77-year-old woman and a 66-year-old man in Kharkiv, and five people were wounded in the southern port city of Odesa. These strikes followed a brief ceasefire for Orthodox Easter, which both sides accused each other of violating.Separately, two children, aged five and 14, were killed in a Ukrainian drone attack in Russia's southern Krasnodar Krai region.
