Russian strikes kill five and injure 16 in Dnipropetrovsk region

At least five people were killed and 16 others sustained injuries following extensive Russian strikes across Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region, local emergency services reported. Russian forces launched nearly 60 separate attacks targeting five districts across the area over a 24-hour period.

The heaviest toll occurred in Kamianske district, where three civilians died and five were injured. In Pavlohrad, shelling resulted in two fatalities and seven wounded residents. Firefighters and emergency teams in Nikopol were deployed to extinguish blazes and clear debris after additional injuries and damage were reported.

The strikes mark another surge in civilian casualties caused by ongoing artillery and drone bombardments in central Ukrainian regions.
