Russian strikes across Ukraine killed at least one civilian and injured 13 others over the past 24 hours.

On March 27, Ukraine’s Air Force reported that Russian forces launched 102 drones, including around 60 Shahed-type unmanned aerial vehicles.

Ukraine’s air defence systems intercepted 93 of the incoming targets across the north, south, and east of the country.

“The number of the victims of the Russians in Donetsk Oblast increased by 1 killed, 1 injured. The total number of victims of Russia in the Donetsk Oblast doesn’t include those killed and injured in Mariupol and Volnovakha,” read part of the statement.

Russian Drone Strikes Kill One, Injure 13 Across Ukraine

According to Governor Vadym Filashkin, in the eastern Donetsk Oblast, one person was killed and another injured.

While in Kharkiv, two people were wounded, while a further nine, including elderly women aged 53, 67, and 90 were injured in the wider region, Governor Oleh Syniehubov said.

In the southern city of Kherson, a drone strike targeting a civilian vehicle injured a 53-year-old man, whose condition was reported as stable, according to Governor Oleksandr Prokudin.

Meanwhile, in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, an overnight attack damaged infrastructure and sparked a fire, though no casualties were reported.

Ukraine authorities confirmed that strikes hit multiple regions, including Poltava, Kherson, and Kharkiv, as Russian aerial assaults continued into the night.
