Russia has attacked some gas production facilities in Ukraine for three consecutive days, halting operations at some of them. In the Zaporizhzhia region, two civilians were killed, and attacks continued in the Kherson and Odessa regions. The Ukrainian president said that Russian troops had attacked ordinary apartments.
