According to Hryhorov, Russian troops struck the city's civilian infrastructure with four bombs. Multi-story residential buildings, non-residential structures, and other infrastructure facilities near the impact sites sustained damage, with hundreds of windows blown out.
Kryvosheyenko specified that one of the strikes hit a shopping center and civilian infrastructure facilities in the Kovpakivskyi district. Local shops and residential homes were also damaged.

Emergency crews remain at the strike sites conducting site inspections and clearing the aftermath of the Russian bombardment.
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.
