Six people were injured as a result of Russian attacks in the Dnipropetrovsk region, the head of the regional military administration Oleksandr Ganja said in the morning of January 18.

“The Vasylkiv community of the Synelniky district was attacked by an anti-aircraft missile. Six people were injured. All victims received the necessary medical assistance. There were several fires. Three private houses, an outbuilding, a fire-rescue unit building, and a car were damaged,” Ganzha wrote in a telegram.

According to him, yesterday evening, according to confirmed data, Russian troops hit the Pokrovsk community with anti-aircraft guns, and a gas pipeline was damaged there.

“The enemy terrorized Nikopol region from the evening and night with FPV drones and fired heavy artillery. Aimed at the district center. A car was on fire. According to detailed information, as a result of yesterday evening’s shelling of Nikopol, an outdoor structure was destroyed, seven private houses and two garages were gutted. The power line and the gas pipeline were affected,” the message reads.

According to the head of the OVA, air defense forces shot down 14 drones in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

Earlier today, the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported that the Russian army attacked Ukraine at night with more than 200 UAVs, most of which were neutralized by air defense forces, but 30 drones were hit.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyi reported that Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, Khmelnytskyi and Odesa regions were under attack, two dead and dozens injured.

The Russian military regularly attacks Ukrainian regions with various types of weapons – attack UAVs, rockets, anti-aircraft missiles, and anti-aircraft missiles.

The leadership of Russia denies that the Russian army during a full-scale war inflicts targeted strikes on the civilian infrastructure of the cities and villages of Ukraine, killing the civilian population and destroying hospitals, schools, kindergartens, energy and water supply facilities.

The Ukrainian authorities and international organizations qualify these strikes as war crimes of the Russian Federation and emphasize that they are purposeful in nature.
