At least five people were killed and 68 injured in Russian attacks across Ukraine over the past day, regional officials reported on April 17.<\/p>\n

Russia launched 75 drones, including Shahed-type drones, two Iskander-M ballistic missiles, and three S-300\/400 anti-aircraft guided missiles against Ukraine overnight, according to the Air Force<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Air defenses intercepted 25 drones, while 30 vanished from radars \u2014 likely deployed as decoys to overwhelm Ukraine’s air defense systems. <\/p>\n

The assault was repelled by a combination of Ukraine’s electronic warfare units, aviation, anti-aircraft missile troops, and mobile fire groups.<\/p>\n

In Dnipro<\/a>, a drone strike killed three people, including a child, and injured 30, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast<\/strong> Governor Serhii Lysak<\/a> said. Five of the injured are children. The strike damaged a dozen apartment buildings, numerous houses, a school, a dormitory, and a gymnasium.<\/p>\n

In Kherson Oblast<\/strong>, one person was killed and 15 others wounded, including a child, Governor Oleksandr Prokudin<\/a> said. Russian forces targeted residential areas and critical infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Russian attacks in Kharkiv Oblast<\/strong> left 16 people injured, Governor Oleh Syniehubov<\/a> reported. The strikes damaged residential buildings and civilian infrastructure across multiple communities.<\/p>\n

In Donetsk Oblast<\/strong>, a resident of Pokrovsk was killed, and six others were injured across the region, according to Governor Vadym Filashkin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In Zaporizhzhia Oblast<\/strong>, a 55-year-old man was injured, and Russian forces carried out 350 strikes on 15 settlements during the day, Governor Ivan Fedorov<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

The widespread attacks come amid continued Russian rejection of a full ceasefire<\/a> agreement and follow recent intensification of strikes<\/a> on civilian areas across Ukraine.<\/p>\n
