Russian attack on clinic kills two, injures five in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast

On 11 November, Russian forces attacked the Nikopol district, hitting a clinic in one of the communities, according to the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, Serhii Lysak.

Russian strikes on hospitals in Ukraine have escalated dramatically, with recent attacks highlighting the severe impact on civilian health care infrastructure. Over 1,800 medical facilities have been damaged or destroyed since the start of Russia’s all-out war against Ukraine in 2022.

The latest attack on Dnipropetrovsk Oblast has killed doctor and another civilian. One medical worker was injured.

“The enemy targeted Nikopol district all day, using artillery and drones. A woman was killed, and her identity is still being confirmed.

A 30-year-old man, who was a doctor, also lost his life. The aggressor struck directly at the clinic where he worked. His colleague was also injured, and doctors are now fighting to save her life,” stated Serhii Lysak.

Overall, five people were injured in the Nikopol district today, four of whom are hospitalized.

In addition to the medical facility, a manufacturing plant, two educational institutions, two stores, a bank, and a cafe were also damaged. Three apartment buildings, two vehicles, and a car were destroyed.
