‎A Russian airstrike on a prison in a frontline region in southeastern Ukraine
has killed 17 people and wounded 42 others, Ukrainian officials say.

The overnight attack in Zaporizhzhia also damaged surrounding homes,
regional leader Ivan Fedorov said.

Russian forces launched eight strikes using high-explosive aerial glide
bombs, he added.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned
Russia's deliberate strike on the grounds of a correctional facility, accusing
Moscow of killing Ukrainians when a ceasefire could have long been in
place.

Zaporizhzhia is one of four eastern regions in Ukraine that Russia claims
to have annexed since 2022, although the region is largely under
Ukrainian control.

Thailand has accused Cambodia of deliberately violating a ceasefire the
two countries had agreed on Monday to end border clashes that have killed
at least 33 people and displaced thousands.

‎It's a shaky start for the ceasefire, which was meant to bring an end to five
days of bombardment and rocket attacks along their shared border.

‎The Thai military says it stopped firing after midnight, but that it continued
to receive gunfire from the Cambodian side at multiple locations up until
this morning.

‎But Cambodia's defence ministry told news correspondents that there had
been no armed clashes between the two sides since the ceasefire began at
midnight.

‎Despite the accusations, a meeting between local commanders which was
part of the ceasefire agreement took place earlier on Tuesday.

‎Both sides agreed to stop shooting and halt the movement of troops on the
frontline. They will also allow each other to collect their dead.

‎Tensions between the South East Asian countries over their century-old
disputed border ramped up in May when a Cambodian soldier was killed in
a clash.

‎They escalated into a full-scale conflict last week after five Thai soldiers
were injured in a landmine explosion. Thailand closed some of its border
crossings, expelled the Cambodian ambassador and recalled its own from
Phnom Penh.
