Sept 21 (Reuters) - ‌Russian forces ​continued ​their attacks on different Ukrainian regions along the 1,200-km (775-mile) ‌frontline of the 4-1/2-year-old war on ⁠Monday, killing at least five people, regional ‌officials said.

Prosecutors in northeastern ‌Kharkiv Region said a drone strike on the town of Lozova ​killed one person and injured three.

Further south in Dnipropetrovsk region, a ⁠drone killed a car driver in Nikopol, which ​is a frequent Russian target on the west bank of the ​Dnipro River opposite ‌the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.

In Donetsk Region, a focal ⁠point of many frontline clashes, a Russian strike badly damaged an apartment ⁠building in the strategic Kramatorsk, killing one person. Another ​person was killed in a nearby village.

And a sustained attack on a village in ‌Mykolaiv Region near the Black Sea coast killed a ‌3-year-old child.

Reuters could not independently verify ⁠attacks from either ‌side. Both ​sides deny targeting civilians.
