An eight-year-old boy was among two people killed in Russian attacks on Ukraine's southeastern Zaporizhzhia region overnight, while a third person died in a missile attack on the central city of Dnipro, Ukrainian officials said.

The interior ministry said the strike on a hotel complex in Zaporizhzhia killed a 38-woman and her son, injuring her husband and teenage daughter, who was receiving intensive care.

The past day saw 313 attacks and instances of shelling on 11 settlements, damaging several buildings in Zaporizhzhia, regional governor Ivan Fedorov said, including a missile attack on the city of the same name, which is the region's administrative centre.

The Ukrainian air force said it shot down 27 out of 35 drones during Russia's overnight attack which also used four missiles.

Mykolaiv's regional governor Vitaliy Kim said an overnight missile attack on the southern region did not result in any casualties.

Kyiv's regional governor Ruslan Kravchenko also reported no damage to critical infrastructure or casualties following air defence work in the region. He said debris caused fires in forest areas and minor damage to a high-rise.

Local authorities in the northern city of Chernihiv said the drone attack dealt minor injuries to two people.

Late on Monday Russian forces also launched missiles at the central city of Dnipro, killing one person and injuring six, while damaging homes in one district, Serhiy Lysak, the regional governor of Dnipropetrovsk, said on Telegram.

There was no immediate comment from Russia. Moscow denies targeting civilians in the war it started with a full-scale invasion of its smaller neighbour in 2022.
