Rescue operations are ongoing in Dnipro after a Russian overnight attack with people likely still trapped under the rubble of a destroyed four-story building, Ukraine’s State Emergency Service said on Apr. 25.
Other residential buildings, businesses and an industrial facility in the city were also damaged, and fires broke out.
Preliminary reports say 14 people were injured, including one child. Thirty people were rescued, including five children.
“Once again, several people are out of contact. Once again, I hope for a miracle. But once again, most likely, there will be no miracle… But we keep praying,” Mayor Borys Filatov wrote on Telegram.
The Dnipropetrovsk regional administration said a four-story building was partially destroyed, while several apartment blocks and a private house were damaged. An enterprise was also hit. Among the injured was a 9-year-old boy, who received medical assistance and will be treated on an outpatient basis.
Ukraine’s Air Force warned of new incoming attack drones targeting the city, and explosions were reported, Suspilne said.
Overnight on April 25, Russia carried out a combined drone and missile attack on Ukraine. In Dnipro, strikes hit residential buildings and an industrial site. In Kharkiv, apartment blocks and private houses were also hit, injuring a man.
