Tretiak noted that one of the wounded was hospitalized, while the other two were treated on the spot.

Russia also attacked Dnipro with a missile during the same night. A fire broke out at the site of the attack. No casualties were reported by the head of the Dnipro Regional Military Administration, Serhiy Lysak.

"It's been a tough night for the Dnipro Oblast,” he wrote.

“But there are no casualties and this is the most important thing. After midnight, the Russians launched a missile attack on Dnipro. A fire broke out at the site of the attack. The fire was extinguished by the emergency service."

In addition, according to Lysak, the Russian army attacked Nikopol with a suicide drone, and shelled Myrovska and Chervonohryhorivska with artillery.

The consequences of the missile strikes are currently being established.

Due to their proximity to the front line, Myrnohrad and Dnipro are periodically attacked by the Russian military. On Feb. 23, one person died as a result of the Russian attack on Myrnohrad.
