The assault affected the municipalities of Nikopol, Myrove, Marhanets, and Chervonohryhorivka. Not only did the shelling claim a life, but it also left a swath of destruction. A utility company, an infrastructure facility, and an administrative building sustained damages. Additionally, one house was completely destroyed, and five others suffered damage. The offensive also impacted two country houses and two sheds.
Lysak further reported that the shelling disrupted power lines, and authorities are still assessing the full extent of the damage.
In a separate but related development, Ukrainian air defense forces successfully neutralized aerial threats by shooting down nine Shahed-131/136 UAVs and one Kh-59 guided missile during the early hours of June 8. Mykola Oleshchuk, commander of the Ukrainian Air Force, confirmed these defensive actions.
Moreover, mobile firing groups of the Armed Forces and electronic warfare systems were active, intercepting targets across the Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhya, Poltava, and Dnipropetrovsk oblasts, showcasing a robust response to the ongoing threats.
