In Kryvyi Rih, an Iskander‑M missile damaged 17 buildings
During the night, Russian forces launched a missile strike on Kryvyi Rih. An Iskander‑M missile hit a densely built-up area in the city’s metallurgical district, damaging 17 buildings, according to Oleksandr Vilkul, head of the Kryvyi Rih Defense Council, on Telegram.
“Last night, the enemy carried out another ballistic missile strike on a peaceful city — using an Iskander‑M. The missile hit a residential sector in the metallurgical district. This is already the 10th strike in the last three years. According to preliminary inspections, only civilian structures were damaged: 7 apartment buildings and 10 private houses, administrative buildings, a cultural facility, an educational institution, a sports facility, a business, garages, and vehicles. Thank God — no casualties, which is the most important thing,” Vilkul said.
A Relief Headquarters has been deployed at the site to assist affected residents. All necessary construction materials were delivered, and by 6 a.m., distribution of OSB boards, roofing sheets, and other materials had begun. Utility workers are helping secure windows, especially for elderly and mobility-impaired residents.
So far, 27 applications for material assistance have been received, and 18 families have already received building materials. Vilkul stated that the Relief Headquarters will operate today until 5 p.m., and, if necessary, on other days as well. A mobile administrative service center (CNAP) is also operating to help residents process documents more easily.
Vilkul also noted that during the night, rescuers freed a 58-year-old woman who could not leave a building damaged by the explosion.
Earlier, Ukraine’s Main Directorate of Intelligence (HUR) published a 3D model of the Iskander‑K and the names of manufacturers of 9M727 missiles.
Additionally, Ukrainian partisans from the ATESH movement disrupted Russian army supply lines on the Kharkiv front by sabotaging a logistics branch.
