Eight individuals were injured in the Dnipropetrovsk Region of Ukraine on Thursday, Aug. 27, following nearly 40 Russian strikes using drones, artillery, and a guided aerial bomb (KAB). The attacks targeted communities in the Nikopol and Synelnykove districts, causing damage to civilian infrastructure such as educational facilities, shops, residential buildings, and private vehicles.
Six people were injured in central Nikopol, with three hospitalized and three receiving outpatient treatment. Two additional injuries occurred in the Pokrovske community, including a 65-year-old man hospitalized in moderate condition and a 59-year-old man receiving outpatient treatment. The Russian military has been increasingly employing jet-powered and missile drones, which are more challenging to intercept due to their speed.
Earlier in the day, Russia launched a drone attack on Kyiv, and a Russian jet-powered drone struck an Epicentr hypermarket in Kharkiv's Osnovianskyi district, resulting in one fatality and five injuries.
