“Terrible news is coming in a flood today (…). My deputy, Yuriy Yandulsky, the director of the department, and the engineers who were assessing the damage were nearly killed,” Filatov wrote.

According to him, Russian forces are operating under the so-called “Syrian scenario.” They strike civilian targets, and then, when emergency responders, utility workers, police, and doctors begin working at the site, they repeat the strike.

As reported, on the afternoon of April 25, the Russians struck Dnipro again, damaging a residential building; one person was killed and seven were injured.

In total, there are currently 34 known casualties in the city due to Russian attacks that occurred overnight and throughout the day.
