At least five people were killed and 16 others sustained injuries following nearly 60 Russian strikes across five districts in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region over a 24-hour period, according to local emergency services.

The heavy bombardment hit multiple population centers, with Kamianske district sustaining the highest casualties after three residents died and five were wounded. In Pavlohrad, shelling left two individuals dead and seven injured, while additional casualties and damage to civil infrastructure were reported in Nikopol.
