The neighbouring  eastern cities of Lysychansk and Severodonetsk faced the brunt of the attacks on Friday night.

Mr Podolyak said: “Exclusively on civilian targets… Russia is still trying to intimidate Ukraine, cause panic and make people be afraid of Z-monsters… Ukraine knows everything and ready for anything. And it will punish for all the evil.”

More attacks continued to reign down the city of Kharkiv as warmonger Vladimir Putin’s forces carried out a fresh round of heavy bombardment in numerous parts of Ukraine.

The strikes hit military bases, civilian infrastructure and residential neighbourhoods including the north eastern village of Andriivka on Friday night.

The polytechnic in the north eastern city of Kharkiv was also damaged.

Last night, the mayor of Severodonetsk, Oleksand Struyk, said the city was “now under the full occupation of Russia” after weeks of battle. Ukrainian forces have retreated to regroup.
