Ukrainian President Zelensky has said that Russia has launched an assault to seize the eastern Donbas region.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Throughout Monday, Russia unleashed a barrage of rocket and artillery fire on a number of eastern areas, with eight civilians killed in the city of Kreminna in Luhansk and in the Donetsk area.<\/p>\n

Seven people were killed and 11 more were injured in four Russian strikes in western Lviv, a city that was largely spared the attacks seen elsewhere in Ukraine.<\/p>\n
