"The enemy attacked Dnipro. Food warehouses caught fire," he said.

In addition, on the same day, the enemy struck the administrative building of a food industry enterprise.

On the same day, Ukrainian air defense forces shot down 15 Russian drones over various districts of the Dnipropetrovsk region.
