The enemy launched the first strikes at 12:55 p.m. Several UAVs immediately hit multi-story buildings and the private sector.

According to preliminary data, three women born in 1947, 1952, and 1941, and two men born in 1951 and 1954 were injured. All are receiving the necessary medical care.

Five apartment buildings, seven private houses, and seven cars were damaged.

At 6:00 p.m., a Russian combat drone again hit a high-rise building, causing a large-scale fire. This strike killed one person, preliminarily identified as a man born in 1956.

Search and rescue operations are ongoing.

Utility services and specialists are working at the sites of the strikes, clearing debris, removing rubble, restoring damaged networks, and documenting the consequences of yet another criminal attack.
