(Reuters) - Russian drones attacked the Ukrainian cities of Dnipro and Kharkiv late on Tuesday, triggering fires and injuring at least nine people, regional officials said.
The attack on Dnipro in southeastern Ukraine, sparked a fire, damaged houses and cars and injured six people, Serhiy Lysak, governor of Dnipropetrovsk region, said on Telegram. One woman was in serious condition after the strike.
In the northeastern city of Kharkiv, hit by drone strikes nearly every evening over the past week, a series of explosions resounded through the city, Mayor Ihor Terekhov said.
Three people were injured and storage facilities were set on fire in Kharkiv, Ukraine's second largest city and a frequent target of Russian assaults.
