Russian forces struck the Nikopol district in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast multiple times on Feb. 29, wounding a 72-year-old man, Governor Serhii Lysak reported.

Nikopol, situated on the banks of the dried-up Kakhovka Reservoir, just across from Russian-occupied Enerhodar and the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, is a regular target of Russian attacks.

Russia hit the city of Nikopol as well as the Marhanets and Chervonohryhorivka communities with artillery and drones, Lysak said on Telegram.

The strikes damaged 17 houses, 10 outbuildings, power lines, a gas pipeline, and cars, according to Lysak.
