Russian forces launched nearly 60 strikes across five districts in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region over a 24-hour period, leaving at least five civilians dead and 16 others injured, according to local emergency services.

The heaviest casualties occurred in the Kamianske district, where artillery and drone strikes killed three people and wounded five.
