Multiple Russian attacks have left at least two dead and two injured in southern Ukraine in the past 24 hours, particularly in Kryvyy Rig, the hometown of President Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukrainian authorities announced Saturday.
According to national police, the bomb attack on a residential area on Friday evening in Kryvyï Rig in the Dnipropetrovsk region left one dead and one injured.
The injured person, a 57-year-old woman, was hit by shrapnel and is hospitalized in serious condition, the presidential administration said.
A fire was also caused by a strike at an industrial complex during the night, police said, adding that the fire had been extinguished.
“Essential infrastructure is damaged,” the presidential administration added, referring to this fire.
Even further south, in the Kherson region, a series of attacks have left one dead and one injured since Friday morning, according to the same source.
According to the authorities, a total of two people were injured in attacks in the Kharkiv and Donetsk regions in the east.
The presidential administration said several locations in the Donetsk region were “under Russian fire,” including Avdiivka.
The industrial city, which has been almost on the front line since 2014, has been the scene of fierce fighting since mid-October, with the Russian army launching several attacks.
