Russian attack on Pavlohrad in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast killed 1, injured 64

On September 6, Russia launched a missile attack on the city of Pavlohrad in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, resulting in at least one fatality and 64 injuries, including five children. The injured include two boys, aged 11 and 4, and a 9-year-old girl. Three of the injured are in serious condition, with the oldest victim being 86 years old.

Several missiles struck the city, causing a fire in an apartment within a high-rise building. Emergency services quickly responded, extinguishing the fire and rescuing five people. Authorities believe Russian forces used five Iskander-M or KN-23 ballistic missiles launched from Voronezh and Rostov oblasts, targeting civilian infrastructure around 10 a.m. local time.

Pavlohrad, with a population exceeding 100,000, is situated about 70 kilometers east of Dnipro and over 110 kilometers west of the front line. Dnipropetrovsk Oblast frequently experiences Russian missile, drone, and artillery strikes due to its strategic location in central-eastern Ukraine.

Russia is already preparing new attacks on Ukraine's energy system

The statement by Denys Shmyhal, the Prime Minister of Ukraine, underscores the ongoing and severe threats facing Ukraine's energy infrastructure. According to Shmyhal, intelligence reports have indicated that Russia is preparing to launch additional large-scale missile and drone attacks on Ukraine's energy system. This follows a series of devastating assaults that have already resulted in the loss of 9 GW of power generation, which amounts to half of Ukraine's pre-war electricity consumption. These continued attacks are characterized by Shmyhal as part of Russia's "terrorist and genocidal policy" against Ukraine.

The attacks on the energy infrastructure are not only crippling Ukraine's ability to provide power to its citizens but are also seen as part of a broader strategy to undermine the country's resilience as winter approaches. These ongoing threats signal a continuation of the conflict's severe impact on civilian infrastructure, further complicating the humanitarian situation in Ukraine.

Four trucks burned near Lviv due to Shahed drone wreckage falling

Maksym Kozytskyi, the Head of the Lviv Oblast Military Administration, reported that wreckage from a downed Shahed (Geran-2) drone caused a fire in an industrial zone in the Lviv district. The incident occurred around 03:15 last night, resulting in four lorries catching fire. Firefighters responded promptly and were able to extinguish the fire within an hour and a half. Unfortunately, the damage to the lorries was extensive, and they are beyond repair.

This event highlights the continued threat posed by drone attacks on critical infrastructure and industrial areas in Ukraine. The use of Shahed drones, which have been frequently employed in attacks, continues to contribute to the destruction of essential resources and disrupt logistics within the country.

Kozytskiy concluded that overall, the enemy attacked our oblast with three attack drones while the two air-raid warnings issued in Lviv Oblast last night were in effect. The air defense downed all drones. Most importantly, there were no casualties
