On the evening of April 4, Russian forces attacked Kryvyi Rih with strike drones. A 56-year-old woman was killed and seven others were injured.

This was reported by the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration Serhiy Lysak.

The missile strike on April 4 left 18 dead and 61 injured. Almost 20 high-rise buildings, 6 educational institutions, a restaurant, and over 30 cars were damaged. The territory of an industrial enterprise was damaged due to a night drone strike.

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that on April 4, Russian troops struck Kryvyi Rih with an “Iskander-M” ballistic missile with a cluster warhead, which is designed to hit a larger area and a larger number of people.

The Russian Defense Ministry is trying to justify its strike by saying it hit “the location of a meeting of Ukrainian Armed Forces unit commanders with Western instructors”. However, the Ukrainian Armed Forces General Staff denies this — the missile hit a residential area and a playground.
