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

At least five people were killed and 16 others injured following a wave of Russian attacks across Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region, local emergency services reported.

Russian forces launched nearly 60 bombardments targeting five separate districts over a 24-hour period. The artillery and drone strikes caused significant casualties, particularly in the Kamianske and Pavlohrad districts. Three individuals died and five sustained injuries in Kamianske, while two fatalities and seven injured residents were recorded in Pavlohrad. Additional casualties were reported in the Nikopol district as emergency crews worked to extinguish blazes sparked by the strikes.

The attacks highlight ongoing aerial pressure on civilian infrastructure as the full-scale conflict continues. Emergency responders have concluded primary operations to clear debris across the affected areas.
