Multiple attacks occurred overnight across Ukraine and Russia, resulting in fatalities and injuries.

According to local officials, two people were killed in Ukraine, while one person was killed in Russia. In addition, more than 20 people were wounded in Ukraine, with nine of them injured in the southeastern city of Zaporizhzhia.

Drone and bomb attacks targeted multiple Ukrainian regions, including Sumy and Dnipropetrovsk. A man aged 66 was killed in a Russian drone attack on his home in Sumy district, while another person was injured in a separate attack in the same region. In Zaporizhzhia, nine people were injured, including two children.

In response to Ukrainian attacks, Russia launched its own strikes on occupied areas and infrastructure. Oleksandr Ganja, head of Dnipropetrovsk regional military administration, reported that Russian forces attacked two districts in the region more than 30 times with drones and aerial bombs.

Ukraine’s State Emergency Service confirmed that extensive destruction was caused to civilian infrastructure in Zaporizhzhia, including a residential high-rise building. Two people were rescued from under the rubble.

In addition to its own attacks, Ukraine has also targeted Russian forces and occupied territories. A woman was killed in a Ukrainian attack on Horlivka, a town in Russia’s Donetsk region. Ten people were injured in a Ukrainian attack on the Volgograd region, with industrial facilities damaged.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that Ukraine has been targeting Russian battlefield logistics and satellite communications centres near Moscow. In response, Russia relocated air defence systems from affected regions to Moscow and the Kerch Bridge, which connects Crimea to the Russian mainland.
