Losin' Lives and Property: The Dnipropetrovsk Region's Unfortunate Encounter with Russian Drones
In a devastating turn of events, the Dnipropetrovsk region of Ukraine had a tragic run-in with Russian drones. Reports coming from various sources like the Regional Military Administration, the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Council, DSNS, and local residents paint a grim picture.
The Big Bite: Huba Village in Samarskyi District
The tragedy began in Huba village, Samarskyi district, where enemy drone fire claimed the life of an innocent 12-year-old girl. A 6-year-old girl and two grown-ups were also wounded during this senseless attack, all of whom were given outpatient treatment to attend to their injuries. This unfortunate incident serves as a gruesome reminder of the consequences of war.
Debris, Fire, and Burning Rubber
As a result of the drone strike in Huba, a private house and outbuilding were partially destroyed, and another house and garage sustained damage. In an unfortunate turn of events, a drone strike in the Slov’yanska community of Synelnykivskyi district started a fire at an agricultural enterprise. The full extent of the damage is yet to be determined in Velikomykhaylivska community.
Widespread Destruction Across the Country
It appears that the Dnipropetrovsk region wasn't the only target; Russian forces also unleashed their fury on other regions. The Nikopol region faced artillery fire and FPV drones, affecting Nikopol, Marganetske, and Pokrovske communities. As a consequence, a 47-year-old woman was injured severely and hospitalized. Besides the human casualties, critical infrastructure, two private homes, an outbuilding, and a power line were demolished in the Nikopol district.
In Kostiantynivka of the Donetsk region, four more lives were claimed and five people were injured due to airstrikes. Across the nation, Russian forces carried out over 100 long-range drone attacks in 13 regions, causing at least two civilian casualties, five injuries, and widespread destruction nationwide.
The air defenders, on the bright side, were successful in shooting down seven enemy drones over Dnipropetrovsk.
