Russian forces shelled three districts of Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region nearly 20 times over the course of an afternoon, damaging businesses in the cities of Dnipro and Kryvyi Rih, according to Ukrainian state media.
The attacks form part of the sustained pattern of Russian strikes on Ukrainian territory beyond the immediate front lines, targeting the Dnipropetrovsk region, which includes major industrial and population centers, including Kryvyi Rih, the hometown of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Details on casualties from the reported shelling were not immediately available, though the damage to commercial property suggests the strikes affected populated urban areas rather than solely military infrastructure.
The Dnipropetrovsk region has faced recurring Russian attacks throughout the war, with both cities named in the report having previously been targeted by missile and drone strikes at various points in the conflict.
Ukrainian officials continue to report and document such attacks as part of their broader effort to draw attention to the toll of Russian strikes on civilian and economic infrastructure across the country.
