Russian attacks cause damage in nine Ukrainian regions, PM Koretskyi says
Russian attacks on civilian targets overnight on September 5 caused destruction and damage in nine regions of Ukraine.
Russian attacks have caused significant damage in nine Ukrainian regions, according to Prime Minister Sergii Koretskyi. The strikes targeted residential buildings, businesses, energy, warehouse, and transport infrastructure. The regions affected include Kherson, Sumy, Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Odesa, Kharkiv, Poltava, Kyiv, and Mykolaiv.
In Kamianske, at least five people were killed and five injured when a strike hit a civilian enterprise. Emergency services are working to manage the aftermath, where the security situation allows. The Prime Minister emphasized that Russia's attacks on civilians and businesses aim to terrorize the population, disrupt operations, hinder logistics, and pressure the Ukrainian economy.
According to Ukrinform, Ukraine's air defense forces successfully neutralized 128 out of the 167 drones launched by Russian forces since the evening of September 4.
