Russian strikes targeted five districts in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region, leaving five people dead and 16 injured.

Russian forces launched nearly 60 attacks across five districts in Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region over a 24-hour period, resulting in five deaths and at least 16 injuries, according to emergency services.

The bombardments heavily impacted the Kamianske district, where three people lost their lives and five others sustained injuries. In Pavlohrad, two residents were killed and seven were wounded during the strikes. Additional casualties and damage were reported in the Nikopol district, where intense shelling triggered multiple fires in residential neighbourhoods.

Local firefighters and rescue teams responded across the impacted sectors to contain blazes, clear rubble, and assist affected residents while municipal authorities evaluated the extent of the damage to civilian infrastructure.
