Russian shelling killed at least 15 civilians in the eastern Kharkiv region on Tuesday, including five in the city of Kharkiv, the regional governor has said, as Russia steps up attacks in the region.

Russian forces have pushed deeper into the Donbas region, with Ukrainian officials announcing the fall of the front-line village Toshkivka, near the strategically important cities of Severodonetsk and Lysychansk.

The UK’s defence ministry said it is highly likely that Russia is preparing to deploy a large number of reserves to the front lines of the Donbas.

A Ukrainian photojournalist and a soldier who was accompanying him when they were killed in the first weeks of Russia’s invasion appear to have been “coldly executed”, Reporters Without Borders has said, after an investigation into their deaths.
