A Russian attack on the evening of March 25 on Dnipropetrovsk injured a 91-year-old woman, Governor Serhii Lysak reported on March 26.

Russian forces attacked the community of Marhanets in the region's Nikopol district with a kamikaze drone, according to Lysak.

Russian troops also reportedly fired on the community of Chervonohryhorivka with heavy artillery.
