Breakdown of Attacks by District

In Kryvyi Rih, an evening attack killed 2 people and wounded 4 others, including one child. The city saw damage to infrastructure, a local enterprise, and a gas pipeline, while emergency crews extinguished 3 fires.

In the Synelnykove district, residential areas came under fire overnight, leaving 2 people dead. The previous day, the same district had already recorded 4 fatalities and 4 injuries. More than 20 homes were damaged in the Dubovyky and Mykolaiv communities, with firefighters responding to 2 blazes in private housing.

The Nikopol district reported 3 injured individuals, along with damage to infrastructure, private homes, and vehicles across 4 communities and the district center. Two fires were contained in this area.

Additionally, in Marhanets, first responders came under attack, damaging a firefighting vehicle though the crew escaped unharmed. In the Samar district, shelling triggered a large-scale fire at an infrastructure facility, requiring over 100 emergency workers and 40 pieces of State Emergency Service equipment to bring it under control.

With tensions remaining high, ensuring the safety of local residents and maintaining rapid emergency response capabilities is essential. The destruction of homes and utilities further disrupts daily life and threatens access to basic necessities.
