Overnight Russian strikes on Ukraine killed two people and wounded more than 20, while Ukrainian attacks on Russian territory and occupied areas killed one and wounded 10, local officials said.
Drone and bomb attacks targeted multiple regions of Ukraine on Friday night, killing one in Sumy and one in Dnipro, while nine people — including two children — were wounded in strikes on the southeastern city of Zaporizhzhia.
Oleksandr Ganja, head of the Dnipro regional military administration, said on Telegram that Russia “attacked two districts of the region more than 30 times with drones and aerial bombs.”
In the northern Sumy district, a 66-year-old man died in a Russian drone attack on a home, regional military governor Oleh Hryhorov said, while a second statement referred to “a massive attack” elsewhere in the same border region, wounding 10 people.
Strikes on the southeastern town of Zaporizhzhia injured nine, including two children, according to Ukraine’s State Emergency Service. “The enemy attack caused widespread destruction of the city’s civilian infrastructure,” the agency said. “Specifically, a high-rise residential building was partially destroyed. Rescuers pulled two people from the rubble.”
On the Ukrainian side, recent attacks have increasingly targeted Russia and occupied territories. A woman was killed in a Ukrainian strike on Horlivka, a Donetsk region town under Russian control, according to a Telegram statement by Moscow-appointed mayor Ivan Prikhodko.
Meanwhile, 10 people were wounded in a Ukrainian attack on the southwestern Volgograd region, regional authorities said on Telegram, adding that industrial facilities were damaged. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy alluded to this in a social media post: “Last night, FP-5 Flamingo missiles successfully hit the Titan-Barrikady facility in Volgograd. This is a large industrial complex where the enemy produces artillery systems and special military equipment, including parts for missile launch systems used in attacks against our people.”
