Regional authorities on Friday announced that Russian strikes killed eight civilians across Ukraine.
The national police said the attacks killed two in the northeastern Sumy region.
Regional Governor Oleg Synegubov said that, further to the east, in the Kharkiv region bordering Russia, two civilians died in an attack.
According to him, rescuers also removed a body from the rubble from another attack that took place earlier this week.
Similarly, Donetsk governor Vadym Filashkin reported another death in an attack on the region.
Moscow has pushed on with its offensive in the Donetsk region even as it tries to fight off a Ukrainian counter-assault into its own Kursk border region.
Ukraine is evacuating civilians from the city of Pokrovsk and its surrounding areas, about 10 kilometers (six miles) from the fighting, where officials say some 50,000 still live.
According to Governor Oleksandr Prokudin, in the southern city of Kherson, which was liberated in autumn 2022 but remains within reach of Russian weapons, two people died and five were wounded.
