Quote from Reznichenko: "Several large-scale attacks took place last night… The Russians attacked energy and water supply infrastructure facilities in Kryvyi Rih, causing considerable damage. The emergency services are working at the scene."
Details: Lukashuk specified that the Kryvyi Rih energy infrastructure facility had been hit by a Russian kamikaze drone, while the water supply infrastructure had been struck by a missile.
An industrial plant has been hit in Pavlohrad; it is currently being repaired.
Russian forces used Grad multiple-launch rocket systems and heavy artillery to fire on the Nikopol and Marhanets hromadas, causing a fire at a Nikopol petrol station [hromada - an administrative unit designating a town, village or several villages and their adjacent territories - ed.]. The fire has since been extinguished.
The Russians have also damaged an apartment block, two private houses, a college, a car repair shop, a furniture factory, an industrial plant and several power lines in Nikopol.
Over 1,000 households in the Marhanets hromada have been left without power as a result of Russian attacks; power engineers have been dispatched to repair the damage and restore the power supply.
There are no casualties or fatalities as a result of the Russian attacks overnight on Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.
Units from Ukraine's Air Command Skhid (East) shot down four Russian Shahed-136 kamikaze drones over the Nikopol district.
