The town of Nikopol in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast was hit by Russian strikes twice on Sept. 11, Governor Serhiy Lysak said at around 3 p.m. local time.
The governor said three men aged 24, 47, and 56 years old were injured and are in hospital.
Lysak added that Russian forces used a Grad multiple-launch rocket system and heavy artillery to attack the city, heavily damaging shops, homes, and an educational institution.
Nikopol is located on the Dnipro River between Kherson and Zaporizhzhia. Russian forces frequently attack the population, occupying territory on the opposite side of the river and indiscriminately firing at civilian targets.
Ukraine regains control of oil rigs in Black Sea
Ukraine has regained control of a set of oil drilling platforms located in the Black Sea, Ukraine's Military Intelligence (HUR) announced on Sept. 11.
The rigs had been occupied by Russia since 2015, following the 2014 illegal annexation of Crimea.
According to HUR, since the start of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Russian forces have turned the platforms into military sites, adding equipment like radar and helipads.
The multi-phase operation involved a battle between Ukrainian special forces on boats and a Russian SU-30 fighter jet, shown in a 13-minute video HUR released about the operation.
The SU-30 jet was damaged and forced to retreat, HUR said, adding that Ukraine took helicopter ammunition and a Neva radar system from the site.
