Ukrainian forces say they have repelled an attack on the country's second city Kharkiv after fierce clashes with Russian forces.
Regional governor Oleh Synehubov said the city was now rid of Russian troops - after street-to-street fighting.
Thousands spent the night in basements and shelters, with intense shelling described by one resident as
"something like Star Wars above your head".
"The wave of the blast was so strong that my ears popped," another said.
A nine-storey residential tower was hit, emergency services said, killing an elderly woman while about 60 people survived after hiding in the basement.
Russian troops also blew up a natural gas pipeline nearby, according to a Ukrainian state communications agency.
