Russia's army carried out a strike on Dnipro, a city in central Ukraine, in the early hours of 19 October. The attack comes as Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine continues, and it damaged private houses.

Rescue efforts

Emergency services are working at the scene. According to the source report, people may be blocked or trapped, meaning residents could be under the rubble of collapsed buildings.

What is known so far

The initial report does not say how many people may be trapped, whether there are casualties, or what type of weapon was used in the attack. More details are expected once local and national officials provide updates.

The strike on residential buildings again highlights the danger to civilians from Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities.
