On the night of July 17, the Russian occupying army launched an attack on the city of Dnipro using 'Shaheds', causing a series of explosions and a fire. At the same time, an attack on Kryvyi Rih with a ballistic missile and 28 'Shaheds' was recorded for the first time. An industrial facility in Kryvyi Rih was destroyed, and a 17-year-old boy sustained serious injuries, for whose life doctors are now fighting. Attacks on Kharkiv and Poltava regions were also recorded in recent days.
At the same time, U.S. President Donald Trump refused to supply Ukraine with long-range missiles following allegations of calls to strike Moscow.
