Russian forces struck the Dnipropetrovsk region nearly 50 times on Tuesday, Aug. 11, injuring one woman and damaging private homes, a business, and local civilian infrastructure.
On Tuesday, Aug. 11, Russian forces launched nearly 50 missile and artillery strikes across three districts of the Dnipropetrovsk region, according to Oleksandr Hanzha, the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration. A 58-year-old woman sustained injuries and is set to receive outpatient treatment. The Nikopol, Marhanets, Chervonohryhorivka, and Pokrovsk communities have borne the brunt of the attacks, with damage reported to businesses, residential buildings, and vehicles.
The Synelnykove district reported infrastructure, home, and vehicle damage as well. A fire also broke out in the Slobozhanske community of the Dnipro district. This assault is part of a consistent pattern of Russian strikes on the Dnipropetrovsk region, which has been targeted by between 40 and 70 strikes daily. Russia's targeting of civilians and civilian infrastructure violates international humanitarian law.
On Aug. 10, two individuals were killed and five wounded in the region when Russian forces struck five districts nearly 60 times, resulting in the deaths of a 57-year-old man and a 15-year-old boy. The Kryvyi Rih district saw its highest death toll on Aug. 3, with three fatalities, including a child, and 11 wounded after over 60 strikes.
On July 30, a Russian missile attack on the village of Radushne in the Kryvyi Rih district claimed the lives of an entire family of 10, including two parents, seven children, and an 18-month-old grandson.
