Quote: "It has been a difficult day for the Nikopol district. Russian forces pounded the district centre and the Pokrovsk, Marhanets, Myriv and Chervonohryhorivka hromadas using FPV drones, UAVs and artillery. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]

One of the strikes in Marhanets resulted in the deaths of a 42-year-old woman and a 39-year-old man. Condolences to their families and friends.

Five other people in the district sustained injuries: a 59-year-old man and [four] women aged 21, 48, 51 and 69. Doctors have assessed the latter's condition as serious."

Details: Several fires broke out in the settlements. Nearly 10 petrol stations were damaged. Damage was caused to infrastructure facilities, two five-storey residential buildings, a house, a shop and a garage. Vehicles, outbuildings and a gas pipeline were also damaged.

Haivanenko added that in Dnipro, the number of people injured in the overnight attack has risen to 16.
