Russia launched a drone attack against the city of Dnipro on April 8, injuring at least 15 people, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast Governor Serhii Lysak reported.
Eight people remain hospitalized as of April 9, with one victim suffering light injuries and the rest being in moderate condition, Lysak said.
A series of explosions occurred in Dnipro between 10 and 11 p.m. local time, according to Lysak. Drone strikes caused multiple fires throughout the city and damaged homes and vehicles.
Four houses, 15 high-rise buildings, about 20 cars, several enterprises, and administrative buildings were damaged.
Dnipro, Ukraine's fourth-largest city, has served as a key logistics and humanitarian hub throughout the full-scale war. Russia frequently targets the city with missile and drone attacks. A large-scale drone strike in Dnipro on March 28 left four people dead and another 24 injured.
Russia also launched a mass drone attack on Kharkiv in northeastern Ukraine on April 8, causing casualties and damage. The attacks come as Moscow continues to refuse a U.S. proposal for a total 30-day ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine.
Kyiv has already said it is ready to accept a full ceasefire once Russia also complies with the terms.
