What was hit
The drones struck critical infrastructure, transport companies, logistics sites and homes across the oblast. Most of the damage occurred in the regional capital, Kropyvnytskyi.
Why it matters
The attack shows that Russian drone strikes also reach Ukraine's central regions, away from the front line, and that both infrastructure and civilian sites are being hit.
The source gives no details on the identities of the dead, the number of injured, how many drones were used or the full extent of the damage.
