Russian troops actively shelled the Dnipropetrovsk region in the afternoon of July 20. Due to the enemy attacks, residential infrastructure was damaged and destroyed, and there were casualties, the Head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, Serhii Lysak, reports.

According to Lysak, Russian forces attacked the Pavlohrad district with a missile during the day. The enemy strike caused a fire, which was quickly extinguished.

The Russians also shelled the Nikopol district. Nikopol, the Pokrovska, Marhanets, and Myriv communities were under attack. The enemy used MLRS, artillery, and drones. Two people were injured in the shelling — a 39-year-old man and a 57-year-old woman. Russian attacks damaged a private house, infrastructure, and two vehicles.

In the Synelnykove district, artillery shelling as well as drone and guided airbomb strikes were recorded. Mezhivska, Novopavlivska, and Velykomykhailivska communities came under fire. There was damage to private houses and a gas pipeline.

In the Kryvyi Rih district, Russian troops attempted an attack using an FPV drone. However, all they managed was to start a fire in an open area, where dry grass caught fire.
