A Russian "kamikaze" attack drone injured 12 people in Nikopol in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast on April 10, including a 16-year-old boy, Governor Serhii Lysak reported.

The boy is in serious condition, the governor said. A dormitory and five cars were damaged in the attack.

The full consequences of the strike are being determined.

Nikopol, located on the banks of the destroyed Kakhovka Reservoir, just across from Russian-occupied Enerhodar and the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, is a regular target of artillery and drone strikes.

Russian attacks across Ukrainian regions over the past day killed at least five civilians and injured at least 24, regional authorities reported early on April 10.

Ukrainian air defenses shot down 85 of the 145 attack and decoy drones launched by Russia overnight, the Air Force reported. Forty-nine drones disappeared from radars without causing damage, according to the statement.

Independent journalism needs a community —
not a paywall.

We’re working hard to show the world the truth of Russia’s brutal war — and we’re keeping it free for everyone, because reliable information should be available to all.

Our goal: reach 20,000 members to prove independent journalism can survive without paywalls, billionaires, or compromise. Will you help us do it?
