Kyiv: Ukraine fought off a fresh Russian offensive on the beleaguered eastern city of Bakhmut, its leaders said on Saturday, as it faces a fresh wave of shelling in the disputed Donetsk region.
Authorities have meanwhile recovered the bodies of two British volunteers who were trying to help evacuate people from the eastern war zone.
And the southern city of Odessa suffered massive power cuts after an accident at a war-damaged electrical substation, affecting half a million households.
