At least five civilians were killed and 16 injured following nearly 60 Russian strikes across Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region.

Russian forces launched nearly 60 attacks 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 service reports.

The heaviest casualty counts occurred in Kamianske district, where shelling killed three people and injured five. Bombardments in Pavlohrad resulted in two fatalities and seven wounded residents. Additional strikes targeted Nikopol district, damaging civilian infrastructure and igniting several blazes that rescue crews worked to extinguish.

The strikes reflect continued artillery and aerial bombardment of eastern Ukrainian communities as the military conflict enters its 1,625th day.
