Details: Emergency workers are currently working to deal with the aftermath of the attacks.
Russian forces had been attacking Dnipro continuously for more than six hours with missiles and drones. Residential areas and civilian infrastructure in the city came under fire.
Luhansk Oblast Clinical Hospital, the Oblast Mental Health Centre, the Primary Health Care Centre from the city of Rubizhne and Lysychansk Multidisciplinary Hospital sustained damage in the attack.
All these medical facilities resumed work in Dnipro after being evacuated from Luhansk Oblast in 2022 and continued providing care to patients.
The building housing Lysychansk Multidisciplinary Hospital sustained the most damage, with the blast wave shattering almost all its windows. The other three medical facilities also sustained varying degrees of damage.
Quote from Luhansk Oblast Military Administration: "Having no success on the front, the Russians continue to terrorise civilians, as though taking out their failures in combat missions on Ukrainian women and children. For almost the entire night, the enemy targeted homes and social facilities."
Background: Buildings of two universities were damaged in a Russian attack on Dnipro on the night of 14-15 April.
