A series of Russian airstrikes targeted Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, killing three people and injuring five others, including children, Ukraine’s State Emergency Service reported on August 11.
The attack struck the Synelnykove district center and the Petropavlivka community, leaving a 47-year-old man dead and a 7-year-old girl injured. The airstrikes also heavily damaged an apartment building and a logistics company warehouse.
First responders added that a separate attack on the Hrushivka and Apostolove communities in the Kryvyi Rih district killed a 15-year-old boy, wounded two other teenagers, and heavily damaged several civilian vehicles.
The assault also extended into the Nikopol district, where Russian forces pounded the municipal center alongside the Pokrovske and Marhanets communities, damaging an administrative building, a bank, a dormitory, and a local store.
The airstrikes reached the Verkhivtseve and Piatykhatky communities in the Kamianske district, damaging a private residence and injuring a 63-year-old man and a 64-year-old woman.
The barrage struck Pavlohrad, where a strike on the Bohdanivka community killed one person and damaged a private home alongside a civilian vehicle.
Russian ballistic missiles struck Kyiv overnight on August 11. Explosions shook the city as fires broke out at warehouses in the Shevchenkivskyi district. The strikes also targeted a children’s hospital, leaving behind two craters and shattering the building’s windows and a gas pipe. The attack caused a gas leak, which has since been contained.
Russian ballistic missiles and aerial bombs struck Zaporizhzhya overnight on August 11, killing six people and wounding nearly 20 others.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
