Russia rejects truce, kills 4 in attack on Dnipropetrovsk Oblast
Russia attacked the city of Kamianske in the early hours of Sept. 5, killing four people and injuring five others, regional Governor Oleksandr Hanzha reported. Three of the victims have been hospitalized, with one in intensive care.
Russia has rejected a proposed ceasefire in Ukraine and carried out a brutal attack on the city of Kamianske in the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast early on September 5. The attack left four people dead and five others injured, according to regional Governor Oleksandr Hanzha. The assault was carried out using missiles, drones, and artillery, targeting an industrial facility in Kamianske. Three of the injured victims were hospitalized, including a 30-year-old woman who is now in intensive care.
The attack came hours after Ukraine had reportedly ordered its troops to observe a temporary ceasefire, and U.S. envoys were traveling to both Kyiv and Moscow to reignite peace talks. President Volodymyr Zelensky had also pledged to refrain from attacking Russia during the negotiations. Despite these efforts, Russia opted to continue its aggressive actions against Ukraine.
Ukraine's Air Force had warned earlier in the night that Russian ballistic missiles were flying towards Kamianske. While Kyiv refrained from striking Russia's refineries and logistics hubs, air raid sirens could be heard across Ukraine throughout the night, causing alarm and panic among civilians. Earlier attacks in Kyiv and surrounding areas had targeted a residential building, resulting in at least two casualties.
