Russian attack overturns minibus in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, injuring over 20 people
A Russian attack on the town of Novomoskovsk in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast caused an explosion that overturned a minibus, injuring 24 people, regional governor Serhiy Lysak reported on Telegram on Jan. 8.
Five of the victims are children: boys aged 4 and 8, and girls aged 11, 16, and 17.
The attack also caused a fire to break out, but it has already been managed, Lysak said. In addition, three administrative buildings, two gas stations, a five-story building, and a car were damaged.
Russia launched a new wave of cruise missiles at Ukrainian cities from strategic bombers and Kinzhals from MiG31-Ks on the morning of Jan. 8. Overnight, the Russian military hit Kharkiv with S-300 missiles, and from the south, Russia attacked Ukraine with Shahed drones.
Industrial facilities and an educational building were damaged in Kharkiv, as well as a house in the town of Zmiyiv, injuring two.
Explosions were heard during an air raid alert in Dnipro and Zaporizhzhya, injuring four in Zaporizhzhya city.
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.
