01:22Shops and other buildings were seen being boarded up in Dnipro on Wednesday following a reported missile attack in the area.
Footage shows workers repairing damaged buildings. Several, including a pharmacy and a shopping mall, can be seen with broken windows and glass doors covered by cardboard.
In the post on Telegram, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed five people were killed in the 'all day long' attack, adding that all injured are 'getting the necessary assistance'.
Dnipropetrovsk regional governor Serhiy Lysak stated that at least 53 people were wounded in the attack and four were in serious condition. Dnipro mayor Borys Filatov added that two schools, three kindergartens and several hospitals were affected and also announced the day of mourning was in the city.
Russia has not commented on the specific strike at the time of publication. Moscow has repeatedly denied hitting civilian infrastructure and insisted only military-linked sites were targeted.
Moscow launched a military offensive in Ukraine in late February 2022 after recognising the independence of the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics (DPR and LPR), claiming that Kiev had failed to guarantee their special status under the 2014 Minsk Agreements, and urging Ukraine to declare itself officially neutral and give assurances that it would never join NATO.
Kiev denounced the Russian action as an invasion. Zelensky imposed martial law throughout the country, announcing a general mobilisation, while the EU and the US imposed several rounds of sanctions on Moscow.
