Nikopol drone strike kills five civilians in Ukraine
A Russian drone strike on a passenger minibus in Nikopol, located in Ukraine’s Dnipropetrovsk region, has killed five people and injured at least seven others. Local officials, including Oleksandr Hanzha, head of the regional military administration, reported that the vehicle was carrying civilians engaged in daily activities near the front line.
In addition to the strike in Nikopol, Russian forces targeted energy infrastructure in the Poltava region during the night. Another drone strike reportedly hit an unnamed industrial facility.
Separately, the Russian Ministry of Defense stated it struck a cargo ship at the Ukrainian port of Chornomorsk in the Odesa region. Both sides of the conflict continue to deny the intentional targeting of civilians.
