In Ukraine, the city of Dnipro was hit by a Russian missile and drone attack, resulting in the death of five civilians and injuring 47 others, including a 14-year-old girl, as reported by authorities. The explosions caused damage to a shopping mall, schools, kindergartens, and hospitals in the area. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy shared a video on social media showing a missile striking the city.

The ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia, which started three years ago, has led to the death of over 10,000 civilians and left around 20,000 others wounded, according to the United Nations. In the Kharkiv region, another Russian shelling hit a village council building, resulting in one fatality and two injuries. In Ruska Lozova village, a Russian glide bomb hit a residential building, injuring at least two individuals.

Ukraine received $2.2 billion from the International Monetary Fund on Wednesday as part of an ongoing credit facility, announced by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal. The credit program involves a total disbursement of $16 billion, contingent on Ukraine meeting economic and fiscal requirements outlined by the IMF. The recently acquired funds will be allocated towards welfare payments, as well as salaries for healthcare workers and educators.
