Russian forces are attacking Ukraine's western regions, Rivne Oblast and Volyn, on 16 October. These areas lie far from the front line, and the strikes affect civilian infrastructure.
In Rivne, the regional centre, a lyceum, a secondary-school-level educational institution, was hit. The initial report does not say whether there were casualties or what damage was done.
In Kovel, a city in the Volyn region, around 10 trucks with semi-trailers are on fire. One person has been injured. Further details about the nature of the attack, the weapons used or the extent of the damage have not yet been provided.
The information is preliminary and may be updated once official data on the consequences of the attack becomes available.
