Russian strikes kill three and wound eight across Ukraine

Russian strikes killed three people and wounded at least eight across Ukraine, officials said Friday.

This, as Ukraine struggles to counter escalating Russian bombardments that have killed more than 50 people over the past three days.

One man was killed and five people were wounded in Russian strikes on Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia region in the morning hours

Another man was killed in Ivano-Frankivsk in western Ukraine.

A woman was also killed in a Russian attack on warehouse facilities in the district of Bucha in the Kyiv region.

Russia and Ukraine are locked in a long-range aerial war while their armies remain largely deadlocked on the front line.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Moscow will likely escalate daily attacks as winter approaches,

putting pressure on Ukraine as it prepares for winter and hitting the infrastructure keeping its war-battered economy afloat.
