At least five people were killed and 16 others sustained injuries following a series of Russian bombardments across Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region over a 24-hour period. Local emergency responders reported nearly 60 separate attacks targeting five districts in the area.

The heaviest casualties occurred in the Kamianske district, where three individuals died and five were injured, and in Pavlohrad, where two fatalities and seven casualties were confirmed. Further strikes impacted the Nikopol district, causing fires and structural damage that required emergency intervention.
