Russian attacks across multiple regions of Ukraine have resulted in civilian casualties and widespread damage to homes and infrastructure, according to local officials.

In Kharkiv, two people were injured following strikes on the city, Mayor Ihor Terekhov confirmed. Several private homes were damaged, along with a gas pipeline, raising concerns about further disruptions to essential services, Russia's independent outlet ASTRA reports. 

In the central city of Dnipro, regional authorities confirmed that three people were killed and 34 others injured. Fires broke out in residential buildings, garages, and vehicles, while an educational institution also sustained damage. Officials said the attacks involved a combination of artillery, missiles, and drones targeting both the city and surrounding areas in the Dnipro and Nikopol districts.

Further south in Odesa, seven people were killed and 11 injured, according to Serhiy Lysak, head of the regional military administration.

In the Mykolaiv region, a family of three—including an eight-year-old child—was injured in the town of Novyi Buh following a drone attack. Regional governor Vitalii Kim said all three were hospitalized but are not in life-threatening condition. Additional damage to homes and infrastructure was reported across the Bashtanka, Mykolaiv, and Pervomaiskyi districts.
