This afternoon, Russian occupiers once again attacked the Dnipropetrovsk region. The Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine detected threats of ballistic strikes, high-speed targets, and activity from enemy tactical aviation.
Earlier today, Russian forces reportedly attempted another attack on the Dnipropetrovsk region. The Air Force of Ukraine reported the threat of ballistic weapons from the southeast, as well as several high-speed targets in the direction of Kryvyi Rih and Pavlohrad.
In addition, activity from enemy tactical aviation was detected in the eastern part of the region.
Military authorities reminded residents of Dnipropetrovsk to follow air raid protocols and remain in shelters until the situation stabilizes.
Local media have already reported an explosion in Kryvyi Rih.
It is worth noting that on July 4, after a similar air threat warning in Kryvyi Rih, a powerful explosion occurred, triggering a large-scale fire at the impact site. Social media immediately suggested that a KAB bomb might have hit the city for the first time.
RBC-Ukraine has detailed the type of weapon the enemy may have used, whether it could have been a Hrom-1, and the differences between guided bombs, missiles, and drones.
