- Story Text:Video captured on Friday (April 4) showed explosions in the southeastern Ukrainian city of Dnipro.
Three people were injured in a mass drone attack on the city, the regional governor said. "It seems that today, we repelled another massive drone attack on the Dnieper with minimal damage and no casualties," Mayor Borys Filatov said.
A Russian drone attack on Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, hit dwellings and triggered fires late on Thursday (April 3), killing at least two people and injuring 32, local officials said.
Kharkiv, in northeastern Ukraine, has been subject to nearly nightly Russian drone attacks in the past week, including an hour-long barrage on Wednesday (April 2) evening.
And in Zaporizhzhia region, further south, at least seven drones had attacked targets in the region, injuring one, the regional governor said.
