At least five people were killed and 16 others injured following a series of Russian bombardments across Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region over a 24-hour period, according to local emergency service officials.

Russian forces conducted nearly 60 strikes targeting five separate districts within the central province. The highest toll was reported in Kamianske, where three fatalities and five injuries occurred.
