The deaths were the latest civilian casualties in Moscow’s recent ramped-up bombardment of the area around the front line.
Russian shelling has killed an 81-year-old woman in the garden of her home and a 60-year-old man in southern Ukraine’s Kherson region, local authorities said.
The Kherson region is a key gateway to the Crimean Peninsula, which Russia annexed from Ukraine in 2014 and is now home to a lot of Moscow’s war logistics operations and rear supply depots. The current counter-offensive, which started four months ago, so far has fallen short of the Ukrainian military’s goal of dislodging Russian forces from large areas. The war now appears set for another winter of grinding attrition.
Ukraine is keen on quickly becoming a member of the 27-nation European Union, though that process could take years as Kyiv undertakes a long list of reforms demanded by Brussels.
