Kyiv, Ukraine—Russian forces shelled a town near the eastern city of Bakhmut on Sunday, killing six people, while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia’s presidency of the United Nations Security Council was undermining the body’s credibility.

Pavlo Kyrylenko, the head of the regional administration in the eastern Donetsk region, said Russian forces had struck the center of Konstantynivka, damaging high-rise and residential buildings. Eight people were wounded in addition to the six fatalities, said the chief of Ukraine’s presidential staff, Andriy Yermak.
