At least five people were killed and dozens of others were wounded in a series of reciprocal air strikes in Ukraine and Russia on Saturday.

Russian strikes killed two people and wounded more than 20 across Ukraine, local authorities said. In the central-eastern Dnipropetrovsk region, one person was killed and two were injured, according to the regional military administration head Oleksandr Ganzha.

In the northern Sumy region, a 66-year-old man was killed when a Russian drone struck a residential building, the local governor said. A separate attack in the region wounded 13 people, Ukraine's State Emergency Service said.

The emergency service also said that strikes on southeastern Zaporizhzhia wounded nine people, including two children, causing extensive destruction to civilian infrastructure. Emergency workers rescued two people from the rubble of a partially destroyed apartment building.

In the Russian-controlled town of Horlivka in Ukraine's Donetsk region, a woman was killed in a strike, the Russian-backed mayor Ivan Prikhodko said in a post on Telegram.
