Russia has sent more troops to Ocheretyne in eastern Ukraine to reinforce an offensive there, but Kiev's forces largely hold the village and expect US arms deliveries to turn the tide in their favour, the Ukrainian military said. Ukrainian troops, he said, were able to shell the part of the village seized by Russian forces and that"the enemy is blocked and measures are being taken to kick them out."There are currently no grounds for peace talks between Russia and Ukraine due to Kiev's formal refusal to negotiate with Moscow, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.

Russian officials had earlier reported a fire at a refinery in the town of Sloviansk-on-Kuban and state media said the facility had partially halted production.Two people were wounded after Russia launched a"massive attack" on energy infrastructure in Ukraine overnight from Friday to Saturday, Kiev's armed forces and local authorities have said.

"The enemy used various types of missiles, including ballistic missiles, and Kharkiv, Kherson, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, Lviv and Ivano-Frankivsk regions were hit," the army said.
