Russian troops carried out more than 20 attacks on two districts of the Dnipropetrovsk region throughout the day, causing infrastructure damage but no civilian casualties.

Serhii Lysak, head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, said this in a post on Facebook, according to Ukrinform.

"More than 20 attacks. The enemy targeted two districts of the region throughout the day," Lysak wrote.

In the Nikopol district, Russian forces used artillery and drones to strike the city of Nikopol as well as the Marhanets, Myrove, and Pokrovske communities.

"The shelling damaged private businesses, a truck crane, a semi-trailer, a market, a store, two administrative buildings, a kindergarten, four apartment buildings, a private home, a car, and a greenhouse. A power line was also affected," Lysak said.

Several fires broke out as a result of the strikes, but they have since been extinguished.

In the Synelnykove district, Russian forces deployed an FPV drone against the Malomykhailivka community, sparking a fire that was promptly put out. Later in the evening, guided aerial bombs were used to strike the Novopavlivka community.
