On October 24, a Russian drone strike targeted an apartment building in the Synelnykove district of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, killing three civilians and injuring 12 others, reported Governor Oleksandr Hanzha. The attack caused a fire on the fourth floor of the apartment building and damaged nearby vehicles and a store. Among the victims was an 11-year-old girl.
Five injured individuals were hospitalized, with three of them in critical condition and undergoing surgery. Hanzha stated that lethal Russian drone strikes have become a daily occurrence in the region, which borders Ukraine's front-line Kharkiv, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson oblasts. Due to its proximity to Russian-occupied territory, the Synelnykove district has frequently experienced attacks, active fighting, and temporary incursions by Russian troops.
In October 2026, Russia intensified aerial bombardments across Ukraine, targeting the country's power grid as temperatures plummeted. The attack caused widespread power outages in Synelnykove and other parts of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast after Russia struck the region's critical energy infrastructure overnight on October 21.
