Russian Forces Shell Dnipro, Sparking Fire

Russian forces shelled the Ukrainian city of Dnipro, and a fire broke out as a result of the attack, according to Ukrinform.

The report offered only limited detail on the strike, without specifying the type of weapons used, the exact areas of the city affected, or whether there were any casualties.

Ongoing attacks

Dnipro, located in central-eastern Ukraine, has been repeatedly targeted by Russian strikes since the start of the full-scale invasion, with attacks periodically hitting residential, infrastructure and industrial sites in and around the city.

Ukrainian authorities have not yet released a fuller damage assessment following the latest shelling. Emergency services are typically dispatched to extinguish fires and assess the scale of destruction after such attacks, though specific details on the response to this incident were not available at the time of the report.

Ukrinform's coverage of the war has continued to track strikes across Ukrainian cities as the conflict continues, with further updates expected as more information on this attack becomes available.
