Quote from Reznichenko: "A 36-year-old man has been killed by the Russians in Apostolove hromada, Kryvyi Rih district.

They fired on the hromada using Uragan [multiple-launch rocket systems - ed.]. Housing, a gas pipeline and a power line were damaged in the village of Pershe Travnia."

 
 

Details: Velyka Kostromka in Zelenodolsk hromada was hit using tubed artillery.

There is some destruction, but people have not been harmed.

A 12-year-old boy was injured in Mezhova hromada, Synelenykove district. The child was sleeping at home when rockets from a Russian Tornado S MLRS flew into his house.

The boy is in the hospital and has undergone surgery.

Housing has been damaged in the village.

 

Russian forces fired 10 shells from tubed artillery on the centre of Nikopol during the night.

Up to 20 multi-storey buildings, a dozen shops, a high school, a bank and a bus shelter were damaged in the city.

Electricians are working on a power line that has been disabled.
