A Russian missile strike hit the southern Ukrainian city of Mykolaiv overnight on Aug. 3, injuring seven and damaging homes and civilian infrastructure, according to Ukrainian officials.

Following the attacks, emergency crews from Ukraine's State Emergency Service were dispatched to the site to conduct rescue operations and extinguish fires caused by the attack.

Four people injured received medical care at the site of the attack, while two men, aged 57 and 74, were hospitalized in moderate condition, Mykolaiv Mayor Oleksandr Sienkevich said early in the morning. Another man, aged 32, received outpatient treatment for injuries.

Located about 480 kilometers (298 miles) southwest of Kyiv, Mykolaiv remains near the front lines and has faced repeated Russian drone and artillery attacks.

Strikes have routinely damaged homes, utilities, and critical infrastructure, impacting civilian life across the region.
