Russian attacks across five districts in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region killed at least five people and injured 16 others over 24 hours.

At least five people were killed and 16 others injured following a wave of Russian bombardments targeting Ukraine's central Dnipropetrovsk region over a 24-hour period. Local emergency services reported nearly 60 separate attacks across five distinct districts in the province.

The heaviest losses occurred in the Kamianske district, where three fatalities and five injuries were documented. In Pavlohrad, two residents died and seven sustained injuries. Shelling also struck the Nikopol district, causing additional casualties and igniting several localized fires that damaged infrastructure. Ukrainian emergency personnel responded to extinguish blazes and assist victims from damaged sites amid ongoing security risks in the area.
