Russian forces launched 35 Shahed/Geran-2 drones at Dnipro overnight into Nov. 18, severely damaging the building housing Suspilne Dnipro and Ukrainian Radio Dnipro, regional chief prosecutor Yuriy Papusha reported.

Public broadcaster Suspilne released interior photos showing charred offices, shattered windows and doors, collapsed ceilings and a heavily damaged roof after a fire broke out.

The broader assault partially de-energized the region, forcing Ukrainian Railways to deploy reserve diesel locomotives after blast waves shattered windows in train cars and at the station, causing delays.

Russia attacked Ukraine with four Iskander-M ballistic missiles and 114 strike drones overnight, about 70 of them Shaheds, the Ukrainian Air Force reported.
