Масштабний обстріл Дніпра та нічний терор Одеси: тижневий огляд ворожих атак
Дніпро та Одеса знову оговтуються від влучань по житлових кварталах. За підсумками двадцятигодинного обстрілу Дніпра 25 квітня, підтверджено загибель дев'ятьох мирних жителів, постраждала 61 людина, атака напередодні забрала життя трьох людей. В Одесі — двоє загиблих і майже два десятки постраждалих. Тиждень відзначився різкою ескалацією обстрілів на прикордонні та в прифронтових областях. Від ворожих ударів постраждали Суми, Ніжин, Чернігів, Харків, зокрема значно посилилися обстріли на півночі Харківщини. Стабільно важка ситуація на півдні та сході — у Херсоні, на Запоріжжі та Донеччині. У Києві внаслідок теракту 18 квітня зросла кількість загиблих до семи осіб — у лікарні помер чоловік; ще семеро поранених, серед яких дитина, перебувають під наглядом медиків. Водночас прокурор Руслан Кравченко вніс уточнення щодо загиблих, життя втратила не матір пораненої дитини, а її рідна сестра.

Russian drone and missile strikes claimed the lives of children in three cities: in Cherkasy, an 8‑year‑old boy was killed on a playground; in Kyiv, a ballistic missile killed a 12‑year‑old child in bed; in Chernihiv, a teenager was found dead under the rubble of a collapsed building.

Over the weekend, tragedy struck in Kyiv: six people were killed in a shooting. Among the wounded was a boy whose parents were victims of the assailant.
