The Ukrainian navy reported a strike on the Ksl ​Deyang, which it described as a Chinese-owned cargo ‌ship sailed by a Chinese crew under the Marshall Islands flag. It posted a photo of the ship showing its name, with one ‌of its sides partially charred.

More than 30 wounded More than 30 people were wounded earlier on Monday after Russia launched hundreds of drones and nearly two dozen missiles at Ukraine overnight, Ukrainian officials said.

Russia targeted the industrial city of Dnipro south of the capital, and the mayor published images on social media showing windows blown out of residential buildings. "Twenty-six people were wounded. The enemy attacked six districts of the region with missiles, drones, artillery and aerial bombs," Oleksandr Ganzha, the head of the region, said.
