Four dead and five injured in Russian attack on Ukrainian region of Dnipro

At least four people have died and five have been injured in an attack carried out by the Russian Army in the Ukrainian region of Dnipro, located in the east of the country, during the early hours of this Saturday and after the temporary ceasefire ordered by kyiv in the middle of the visit of the American delegation to resume peace talks.

As reported by the governor of the region, Oleksandr Hanzha, the Russian Army has attacked the region with missiles, drones and artillery, leaving four dead and five injured in the town of Kamianske. Likewise, three of the injured have been hospitalized, one of them in serious condition.

According to Hanzha, an industrial facility was hit hours before Ukrainian forces warned that Russian ballistic missiles were heading towards the town.

This attack occurred after Ukraine ordered its troops to respect a temporary ceasefire while US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner traveled to kyiv and Moscow to resume peace talks. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky also stated that Ukraine would refrain from attacking Russia during the talks.

While kyiv has refrained from attacking Russian refineries and strategic centers overnight, anti-aircraft sirens have also been heard in cities across the country, The Kyiv Independent has reported. During the attacks in kyiv and neighboring regions, a residential building was destroyed, leaving at least two people injured.
