A deadly Russian drone attack struck a marketplace in the Ukrainian city of Nikopol on Saturday morning, leaving five people dead and injuring 19 others, according to Ukraine’s prosecutor general’s office.
Ukrainian authorities condemned the assault, with the prosecutor’s office stating on Telegram: “This is yet another war crime committed by the Russian Federation.”
The city of Nikopol sits along the frontlines of the conflict, positioned across the Dnipro River just kilometers from Russian-controlled territory. Due to its strategic location, the city frequently comes under enemy fire and bombardment.
