Vladislav Havranenko, acting governor of the Dnipropetrovsk region, whose administrative center is Dnipro, said on the Telegram messaging app that Russian drones struck the region late Monday night, injuring two people, causing several fires, and damaging apartment blocks and city infrastructure.

Suspilne reported on the Telegram messaging app that a fire broke out, windows and doors were blown out, and the building's floors and ceilings were damaged, but no employees were inside at the time.

The broadcaster posted a photo showing a large hole in the concrete floor of a building, which had caused the collapse of metal reinforcing bars, hanging wires, and ceiling panels.

Suspilny is Ukraine's nationwide public broadcaster, operating television, radio, and online news services through a network of regional outlets across the country.

Dnipro, an industrial city in east-central Ukraine, and the wider Dnipropetrovsk region have faced repeated Russian missile and drone attacks during the nearly four-year-old war, killing civilians and damaging housing, industry, and infrastructure.

There was no immediate comment from Russia on the attack.
