Russian attack on Dnipro leaves over 350,000 without power

Russia attacked Dnipro again on Oct 29, and preliminary data shows more than 350,000 customers lost power in the city and nearby communities. Water pumping stations were switched to generator backup, and the regional administration gave no date for restoring power.

Killed at the station

14 at least

Earlier that day a Russian drone hit a railway station platform in Dnipro where a passenger train stood, killing at least 14 people and wounding as many more. Russia also struck civilian sites in Chernihiv, Kremenchuk and Zaporizhzhia, and the dead include children.
