Details: Several fires broke out in Dnipro, damaging a two-storey building housing a media outlet, transport and private businesses, an office building, a car service station, shops and kiosks, a catering establishment, infrastructure, six high-rise residential buildings, garages and over 20 cars. Three more cars were destroyed.
The grounds of a property caught fire due to the attack on the Novooleksandrivka hromada in the Dnipro district. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]
The Russians damaged infrastructure in the Samar and Pavlohrad districts.
The Nikopol district was attacked by the Russians using FPV drones and artillery.
Haivanenko said that defenders of the sky had destroyed 33 Russian drones over the oblast.
