Russian forces struck Dnipro overnight, damaging a residential apartment block and a bank branch and wounding ten people, including a 12-year-old boy, according to Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration head Oleksandr Hanzha.
Hanzha reported the attack on social media, noting that a fire broke out at the site. "The blast wave damaged a multi-storey building and bank premises," he wrote.
The casualty toll climbed steadily through the night. Initial reports put the number of wounded at two — a 29-year-old woman hospitalised in moderate condition and a 60-year-old man who received on-site treatment but declined hospitalisation. By 00:10, Hanzha confirmed the count had risen to four, adding that a 12-year-old boy was among those hurt. "Medics are providing him with all necessary assistance," he said.
By 00:39, the figure had reached seven. "Three women, three men and a 12-year-old boy were wounded in the Russian attack on Dnipro. Two women were hospitalised," Hanzha reported. The final update, issued at 01:39, put the total at ten, with medical assistance being provided to all.
The strike on Dnipro came hours after Russian forces attacked Kharkiv on the evening of 9 March, with hits recorded near residential apartment buildings and casualties reported there as well.
On the night of 10 March, Ukraine's Air Force said Russia launched 137 strike drones — Shahed, Herber, Italmas and other types — of which roughly 80 were Shahed variants. Air defences shot down or neutralised 122 of them, according to preliminary figures as of 08:00. Twelve drones hit ten locations; debris from downed UAVs fell on a further ten locations. As of the Air Force's latest report, the attack was still ongoing, with several Russian drones remaining in Ukrainian airspace.
