Night attack on Ukraine
On the night of August 22, the Russian army once again attacked Ukrainian territory.
In particular, the Russians launched a missile strike on Kryvyi Rih at dawn. Preliminarily, one person was injured. The rocket attack caused damage to 20 private houses and disrupted the power transmission lines.
Also, during the night, the Russian army attacked the Sinelnikivskyi district of the region with a drone strike. The enemy targeted a private enterprise, resulting in a fire. Subsequently, the occupiers launched another attack on the district, damaging power transmission lines and other civilian infrastructure.
Additionally, near Zaporizhzhia, the Russians conducted two missile strikes at night and attacked an open area with three UAVs—the shockwave damaged nearby buildings. Experts are currently mitigating the consequences of the enemy strike. No information about casualties has been reported.
