In Ivano-Frankivsk, air defense systems were active, but the attack still caused two deaths and four injuries, including a child. A maternity hospital and nearby residential buildings were also damaged.
In Vinnytsia, officials confirmed one death and 11 injuries following the strikes. Explosions were also reported in Ternopil, while in Zhytomyr a 12-year-old girl was injured after a residential building was damaged.
Ukraine’s Air Force said Russia launched 556 drones during the day, with 541 intercepted or suppressed. Despite this, multiple strikes hit targets across the country, including central and western regions.
Officials say the scale and persistence of the attacks suggest new tactics being tested, as Russia continues its large-scale aerial campaign against Ukraine.
