A Russian airstrike on the Synelnykove district of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast killed a 17-year-old girl and a 59-year-old woman on Sept. 26, regional authorities said.
On September 26, a Russian airstrike in the Synelnykove district of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast killed two civilians: a 17-year-old girl and a 59-year-old woman. Two other individuals, including a 6-year-old boy, were injured in the attack. The strike, which involved a guided aerial bomb, targeted the Mezhova community within the district.
Residential buildings were damaged by the explosion. Reacting to the incident, the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast Prosecutor’s Office initiated a war-crimes investigation. Meanwhile, Russian forces also launched attacks on the Nikopol district using FPV drones and artillery on the same day. Three people were injured in Nikopol, while an administrative building, a store, homes, and vehicles sustained damage.
The deadly strike on Synelnykove came days after Russia targeted industrial facilities in Dnipro, Kryvyi Rih, and Pavlohrad on September 22. Four employees were killed in Dnipro by a ballistic missile strike, while at least seven others were injured, with infrastructure and production equipment also damaged. Russian forces have been persistently targeting communities across Dnipropetrovsk Oblast with various weapons as the conflict moves closer to the eastern border.
