Four people were injured, the acting governor of the Dnipropetrovsk region, Vladyslav Hajwanenko, announced on Telegram. Five residential buildings also caught fire.

According to the Ukrainian air force, the Russian military deployed 80 drones of various types. 64 of them were intercepted. Nevertheless, there were twelve strikes in eight locations and drone debris fell in a further three places.

Ukraine has been defending itself against a Russian invasion for almost four years. Both sides are using combat drones more and more intensively against targets far in the enemy's hinterland.
