One person is reported to be dead and several injured in a Russian attack on a post office in Ukrainian Kharkiv, according to local authorities.

At the same time, Russian forces are continuing to claim advances along the front line in Ukraine.

At least nine people, including a baby, are reported to have been injured in the attack on the post office in Kharkiv in the northeast.

"A man, a member of the post office staff, was killed," writes the region's governor Oleh Synehubov on the messaging app Telegram.

The city of Kharkiv has regularly been a target for Russian attacks. In May, Russia launched a comprehensive ground offensive in the region.

On Sunday, Russia claims to have taken over two more villages in eastern Ukraine. This is said to concern the two villages of Spirne and Novooleksandrivka in the Donetsk region, according to the Russian Defense Ministry.

Novooleksandrivka is thus said to be the westernmost point in the region that Russian forces have taken over.
