A distribution hub belonging to the Nova Poshta postal service was struck in the southern city of Odesa, it said.<\/p>\n<p> The Russian military also hit a cargo ship in the Black Sea and another one in the Ukrainian port of Chornomorsk, the ministry said. The strikes aim to curb Ukraine&#8217;s grain exports, though they may also create food shortages in countries that rely on Ukrainian imports.<\/p>\n<p> The Russian aerial attacks regularly hit civilian areas. Moscow claims it targets only military-related sites.<\/p>\n<h2>Ukraine claims small gains along entrenched front lines<\/h2>\n<p>Battlefield positions have changed little since last year, in part because swarms of drones severely restrict troop movements, but Kyiv&#8217;s forces launched a recent offensive, code-named Operation Vivaldi, on part of the 800-mile front line.<\/p>\n<p> Ukraine&#8217;s Third Army Corps said Monday it had recaptured another 20 square miles from the Russians, bringing the total to 68 square miles since the offensive began several months ago.<\/p>\n<p> The corps said that in order to break through Russian defenses, it converted Soviet-era BTR-60 armored personnel carriers into kamikaze vehicles that blew up the strongest Russian fortifications. The operation has also used ground robots to attack Russian positions.<\/p>\n<p> The claimed breakthroughs came in the Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine, which the bigger Russian army has been trying in vain to conquer.<\/p>\n<p> Russian officials made no immediate comment on the Ukrainian claim.<\/p>\n<p> Russia&#8217;s Defense Ministry, meanwhile, said Russian troops captured the villages of Novovodiane in the Donetsk region and Ulanove in the northern Sumy region.<\/p>\n<p> It was not possible to independently verify the claims.<\/p>\n<p> Zelenskyy said long-range strikes on Russian soil hit two defense plants in the Tula and Voronezh regions and oil facilities in the Krasnodar region, all in southern and western Russia.<\/p>\n<p> Ukraine&#8217;s long-range drones have repeatedly targeted Russian fuel depots and industrial plants that are a mainstay of Moscow&#8217;s economy and war effort.<\/p>\n<p> Ukrainian drone attacks overnight started fires at three infrastructure facilities in Russia&#8217;s Krasnodar region, local emergency officials said Monday, without identifying the locations.<\/p>\n<p> Russia&#8217;s Defense Ministry said air defenses downed 254 Ukrainian drones overnight.<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"chartbeat\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation
