“Four of them are in hospital, including a 17-year-old,” military governor of the Dnipropetrovsk region, Valentyn Resnichenko, said on his Telegram channel on Saturday. Other victims are believed to lie under the rubble of the stricken houses.
According to the authorities, a total of seven houses were damaged by the attack. A warehouse was also destroyed. Rescue workers are looking for a missing warehouse worker.
In addition to Dnipro, the small town of Chasiv Yar in the eastern Ukrainian region of Donetsk was also hit on Saturday. An apartment building was hit in the city, which is under Ukrainian control, injuring three people, the region’s military governor Pavlo Kyrylenko said.
On the other hand, Russian-backed separatists in Donetsk complain about the continued shelling of the city by the Ukrainian army. One person was killed and another injured on Saturday, it is said.
