In Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, a minibus was damaged by a rocket strike; five people were injured
In the Pokrovska community of the Nikopol district, a passenger minibus was damaged as a result of a Russian drone strike. Three people were injured in the attack, two of whom were hospitalized: a 37-year-old woman is in critical condition, and a 53-year-old man is in serious condition. Another 65-year-old woman received the necessary medical care and will be treated on an outpatient basis.
This was reported by the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration, Oleksandr Hanzha, who noted that a total of five people were injured during drone attacks on two districts of the region.
In addition to the strike on the minibus, two other community residents—a 28-year-old woman and a 52-year-old man—were wounded as a result of other enemy attacks. Nikopol, Marganets, and the Mykolaiv community in the Synelnykivskyi district also came under fire, where shelling caused a fire and damage to private homes. While regional administrations in Ukraine promptly report on the condition of every injured civilian, in Russia the consequences of strikes on its own or occupied infrastructure are often downplayed, and civilian casualties are ignored in official reports. Currently, medical personnel continue to provide assistance to all injured residents of the region.
