Attack on Nikopol: Number of Injured Rises to 25, Five People Dead

In a tragic escalation of violence, Russian forces launched morning strikes on a market in Nikopol, resulting in 25 injuries, including eight hospitalizations, and claiming the lives of five individuals. This information was confirmed by Oleksandr Hanzha, the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, via his Telegram channel, as reported by the Ukrinform news agency.

Among the injured is a 14-year-old girl who has been transferred to a regional hospital for necessary medical treatment. Hanzha expressed his condolences to the families of the deceased, noting that the Russian strikes have taken the lives of five people. This tragedy has sparked deep outrage and sympathy among local residents and the broader Ukrainian community.

It is important to recall that earlier, on the morning of April 4, Russian troops conducted an attack on Nikopol using FPV drones. At that time, it was already known that five people had died and 22 were injured. This situation serves as yet another testament to the brutality and senselessness of the war that Russia is waging against Ukraine.

Nikopol, located in the Dnipropetrovsk region, has not been a stranger to Russian attacks. Local residents have endured numerous shellings that have caused significant damage to infrastructure and resulted in human casualties. In light of this, authorities are urging the population to adhere to safety measures and remain cautious during air raid alerts.

This tragedy further underscores the necessity for international support for Ukraine in its struggle for independence and territorial integrity. The global community must unite to counter aggression and ensure the safety of civilians suffering from the consequences of war.
