Russian forces attacked five districts of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast using drones, artillery, and an aerial bomb, killing three people and injuring five others, regional authorities said on September 17. The strikes add to a continuing pattern of Russian bombardment against Ukrainian regions near and behind the front line. Local authorities did not immediately detail the extent of damage to infrastructure, but the attack underscores the persistent civilian toll of Russian strikes across multiple Ukrainian oblasts reported throughout the day.
