Russian forces say they have taken two more Ukrainian villages in the east of the country.
Moscow’s foreign ministry announced the capture of one village in the Kharkiv region and another one in Donetsk.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged Western leaders to pressure Russia into peace using "all means" necessary.
Mr Zelensky has long said he will not negotiate with Russia directly until Moscow’s forces leave all Ukrainian territory, including Crimea.
His call, however, comes as Russia makes gains against Ukraine, with Kyiv suffering from a shortage of Western-supplied weapons.
