The head of the military administration of the Dnipro region, Serguii Lysak, indicated that the deceased was a 69-year-old pedestrian, and 23 people were injured, including two children aged three and six, who had to be hospitalized .

Zelensky posted a video in which the buildings are badly damaged and from which columns of smoke rise.

Local media have released videos of rescuers helping people with bloodied faces escape the clinic through rubble-strewn corridors.

“Another Russian rocket attack, another crime against humanity,” Zelensky added.

Lysak pointed out that the region, in central Ukraine, was “massively attacked” during the night “with missiles and drones”.

Kiev also said it suffered the 13th Russian airstrike overnight since the beginning of the month, this time with cruise missiles launched by Tu-95MS bombers from the Caspian Sea region.
