Russia launched on Tuesday (September 30) a rare daytime drone attack on the Ukrainian city of Dnipro, killing one man, injuring 20 other people, and damaging medical facilities and residential and office buildings, officials said.
Video handout from the State Emergency Services of Ukraine showed smoke billowing out of building windows, destroyed cars, firefighters working to extinguish flames in buildings and emergency service personnel at the scene.
Reuters was able to independently verify the location of the video by the road layout, the facade of the buildings, trees and street signage which matched file and satellite imagery.
The date when the video was filmed could not be independently verified however Dnipropetrovsk Governor, Serhiy Lysak, confirmed the attack took place on Tuesday (September 30).
Lysak said the attack targeted the centre of the industrial city at a time when people were at work and children were in schools.
On the Telegram app, he shared a video showing heavy smoke billowing above buildings and firefighters battling the blaze in the centre of Dnipro, which serves as an industrial and business hub for southeastern Ukraine.
Lysak said an office building was on fire, adding that several other buildings and dozens of cars were damaged.
