At least five people were killed and 16 injured after Russian artillery and drone strikes targeted five districts in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region over a 24-hour period.

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

Russian forces launched nearly 60 attacks targeting five separate districts within the eastern region. The heaviest casualties occurred in the Kamianske district, where three fatalities and five injuries were confirmed. Separate bombardments in Pavlohrad resulted in two civilian deaths and seven wounded, while additional injuries were recorded in Nikopol.

Emergency response teams worked across the affected locations to extinguish fires, search through damaged building debris, and provide medical care to survivors as local authorities evaluate the scope of destruction caused by the strikes.
