Attack on Dnipro: 20 explosions rocked the city, residents share shocking details

Russian forces launched a drone attack on Dnipro. One person was killed and another wounded — both were ordinary civilians who were at home during the attack.

This is reported in a segment by TSN correspondent Anastasia Nevirna.

Last night, the Russian army targeted homes in Dnipro's private residential sector. The smoldering ruins were, until recently, the home of 78-year-old Mr. Vyacheslav. He was wounded. Fortunately, his life is not in danger. According to neighbors, the man buried his wife six months ago after 55 years of marriage. He had not yet recovered from that grief — and now he has lost his home.

Another house was also destroyed — this is where, the evening before, a Russian "Shahed" drone struck, taking the life of a 53-year-old man. Footage has surfaced online showing efforts to resuscitate him at the scene. CPR was performed, but it was all in vain — his injuries were too severe. He could not be saved.

Mr. Mykola walks through the ruins of his home. He says tenants had been living there, while he stayed nearby with his paralyzed wife. Miraculously, everyone survived.

The first explosions in Dnipro were heard around 10:30 p.m. — about 20 in total, one after another. Ms. Oleksandra, together with her daughter, says they prayed just to stay alive.

“Oh God, I jumped up, I was shaking. My daughter, too — she broke off and started praying, you know, we were in total shock,” the woman says.

The woman is 86 years old. She says she lived through World War II, but cannot recall such cruelty toward civilians.

"I remember when the Germans were in our village. Even they — barbarians as they were — did not torment us like this. Not even the Germans were as cruel as these [Russians]," she says.

In addition to private homes, a local business, a funeral service office, and several vehicles were also destroyed. Municipal workers and volunteers are now cleaning up the streets.
