Ukraine's northern city of Chernihiv is still facing heavy Russian shelling, Al Jazeera reported citing the region's governor Viacheslav Chaus.
In a video address, Chaus said Russian troops were targeting civilian infrastructure "where there is no and has never been any military."
"The peaceful population is dying and there are many injured," he said.
