The strike occurred at 23:47, when the airborne target was moving at an impressive speed of about 13,000 kilometers per hour.

Kozytskyi urged the population to remain in shelters until the air alert is lifted. This strike is part of a broader aggression, as the Russian army also attacked other regions of Ukraine. In particular, damage to infrastructure was recorded in:

• Dnipropetrovsk
• Kryvyi Rih
• Pavlohrad

As a result of the attacks, consumers in Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhzhia regions were left without electricity supply. These events highlight the continued escalation of the conflict and the threat posed by missile strikes to civilian infrastructure.

Tension in the Conflict

Attacks on civilian infrastructure, including Lviv, indicate the rising tension in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The lack of electricity supply in several regions underscores the vulnerability of Ukrainian infrastructure, which could have serious consequences for the daily lives of the population. These events suggest that the war continues, and the dangers to civilians remain pressing amid military actions.
