An explosive device was detonated at a polling station in Russian-occupied southern Ukraine but caused no deaths, as Moscow organises voting in territories it controls, Kremlin-backed officials said on Friday.

“In Skadovsk, an improvised explosive device was planted in a rubbish bin in front of a polling station. It detonated. There are no casualties or injuries,” Moscow’s electoral commission in the occupied Kherson region said.

Russian forces also said that Kyiv had shelled polling stations in the occupied city of Kakhovka.
