A Russian missile strike on Thursday claimed the life of at least one person and left five others injured, while also damaging a civilian warehouse in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro.
Regional governor Serhiy Lysak, writing on the Telegram messaging app, said the strike triggered a large blaze at the site.
Images shared by regional prosecutors showed a structure engulfed in smoke, with its walls partially collapsed and flames consuming the building.
In response to the incident, local media channels circulated videos showing thick black smoke billowing into the sky.
According to Dnipro mayor Borys Filatov, “the missile hit a storage facility for diapers.”
Governor Lysak also reported that a separate Russian drone attack in the town of Nikopol injured 13 people and struck a residential building, further escalating tensions in the Dnipropetrovsk region.
Meanwhile, the nearby city of Kryvyi Rih has been plunged into mourning after a deadly missile assault by Russian forces on Friday killed “nine children and 11 adults.”
