Hanzha later wrote that two people – a pregnant 21-year-old woman and a 45-year-old man – were injured in the attack and received medical assistance on the scene. 

According to Ukraine’s Air Force, Russian forces attacked Dnipro overnight with strike drones.

The attack followed another Russian strike on Dnipro late on May 5, when Russian forces hit a distribution center belonging to the Varus supermarket chain. Four staff members were killed, the company said. Another 19 people were injured, with 15 still hospitalized the following morning, including four men reported to be in serious or critical condition.
