Russia launched 36 overnight drone attacks on Ukraine, Ukraine's Air Force said on Tuesday, adding that its air defence systems destroyed 27 of the air weapons.
The attacks with the Iran-made Shahed drones targeted the Odesa, Mykolaiv and Kherson regions, the Air Force said on the Telegram messaging app.
Reuters could not independently verify the information. There was no immediate comment from Russia.
Odesa Governor Oleh Kiper said unspecified "logistics infrastructure" had been struck but that no injuries were reported. Russian forces have carried out regular missile and drone strikes on infrastructure in southern Ukraine in recent weeks and months, targeting port facilities in particular.
Kherson region's administration said on its Telegram channel that over the past day, Russia carried out 79 instances of shelling including from mortars, artillery and with the use of drones, injuring four people and damaging several buildings.
