MOSCOW / KIEV - One person was killed and two others injured in an overnight attack by Ukraine on the city of Feodosia in Crimea, local authorities confirmed on Tuesday.

Sergey Aksenov, head of Crimea, said earlier on Tuesday that the port area has been cordoned off, while corresponding services operating on the site.

Another six people have been evacuated to temporary accommodation centers, as six buildings were damaged by the attack, he said, adding that the remaining residents have been placed with relatives and friends, with transport infrastructure in normal operation.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian military spokesman Oleksandr Shtupun on Monday denied the reports that Russian forces have gained full control of the town of Maryinka in the eastern Donetsk region, the Interfax-Ukraine news agency reported.

"Battles for Maryinka continue ... It is incorrect to talk about the complete capture of Maryinka," Shtupun, the spokesperson for Ukraine's Tavria Defense Forces, was cited as saying.

Currently, the Ukrainian military troops remain within the administrative boundaries of Maryinka, but the city has been completely destroyed, the spokesman said.
