Two civilians were killed in Donetsk on Sunday after shelling by Ukrainian forces, the Russian-installed mayor of the east Ukrainian city said on Telegram.
Alexei Kulemzin said a young man born in 2005 and a woman born in 1956 had died as a result of enemy fire.
Reuters was unable immediately to verify the report.
Earlier on Sunday, a civilian man died after Russian forces shelled Ukraine's southern city of Kherson, the local governor said.
