Doctors are currently operating on patients with severe injuries.
Once the surgeries are completed, they are expected to be transferred to a regional hospital in Dnipro for further treatment.
On October 12, Russia attacked an Epicentr hypermarket on the outskirts of Dnipro. The enemy strike on Dnipro and the Dnipro district killed one person and sparked a massive fire at the shopping center.
The blast wave also damaged the windows of a high-rise residential building.
In addition, on October 10, Russian forces dropped a munition from a drone in the Pokrovske community of the Nikopol district.
The attack killed an 11-year-old boy in the Nikopol district, while two other children — a 12-year-old boy and a 10-year-old girl — were injured and hospitalized.
