Details: Kim said Russian forces had attacked Mykolaiv Oblast's Bashtanka district with guided aerial bombs overnight. A 38-year-old woman and her 15-year-old daughter were killed in the Horokhiv hromada. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]

Quote from Kim: "The enemy attacked the district overnight, likely using guided aerial bombs. A family has been affected by the strike on the Horokhiv hromada. A mother and daughter – a 38-year-old woman and her 15-year-old girl – have been killed. A 13-year-old girl has been injured and hospitalised."

Details: A 39-year-old woman was injured in another settlement in the Horokhiv hromada. She has also been taken to hospital.

As of this morning, both women were reported to be in a critical but stable condition. The attack damaged 20 houses, an educational institution and a power line, leaving some consumers without electricity.

Hanzha said Russian forces had attacked five districts in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast more than 20 times using drones and artillery.

Four people were injured in the Nikopol district. A 42-year-old man has been taken to hospital in a moderate condition. Three others – a 51-year-old man and two women aged 40 and 52 – will receive outpatient treatment.

A fire also broke out in the city of Pavlohrad and transport infrastructure was damaged. Wheat fields caught fire in the Piatykhatky and Apostolove hromadas. Russian forces also struck the Petropavlivka hromada in the Synelnykove district.

Police reported that six people had been injured in Sumy Oblast over the past day. A Russian drone struck a residential building in the Mykolaivka hromada, injuring women aged 67, 64 and 21. Two 55-year-old women sought medical help after suffering from shock.
