At least three people have been killed and three others injured in new Russian rocket attacks on the town of Kryvyi Rih in southern Ukraine, according to local authorities. The governor of the Dnipropetrovsk region, Serhiy Lysak, announced on Telegram that a twelve-year-old boy was among the dead. The attack with Iskander-M missiles and guided missiles took place in the middle of the night. Lysak published several pictures of houses lying in ruins. A search is underway for people buried in the rubble, it said.

The industrial city of Kryvyi Rih, where President Volodymyr Zelensky was born, has repeatedly been the target of Russian attacks in Moscow's war of aggression, which has been going on for more than two and a half years.

During the night, several regions of Ukraine once again reported air alerts due to Russian attacks. The Ukrainian air defense spoke of 25 attacks in total. It said that 5 missiles and 11 drones had been intercepted.
