Fourteen of the wounded were hospitalized, three of them in serious condition, Hanja said. The rescue operation has been completed. Earlier reports had put the death toll at one.

Dnipro Mayor Borys Filatov published footage of the aftermath of the strike on the city hospice and urged that it be shown to as many politicians and diplomats abroad as possible. He said the facility housed elderly, terminally ill people, the oldest of them 90. The hospice's wards had been renovated shortly before the attack, Filatov said.

According to Ukraine's State Emergency Service, 11 people were rescued from the rubble of a destroyed building. Rescuers recovered the body of one victim, and another person later died in hospital.

The city hospital that was hit was treating almost 100 people. No patients or medical workers were injured, and patients are being transferred to other medical facilities. About 50 terminally ill patients had to be evacuated from the hospice to other hospitals, Filatov said.

In total, 20 residential buildings in Dnipro were damaged or destroyed. A gymnasium, a kindergarten, a music school, a library, the Enerhetyk palace of culture and a World Bank outpatient clinic were also hit, the mayor said. More than a thousand windows were shattered, and in some places doors and radiators were torn out. A water intake facility was also damaged, leaving part of the city without water.

The same day, the death toll from a FAB-3000 bomb strike on Kamyshevakha in the Zaporizhzhia region rose to 29, according to Ivan Fedorov, head of the region's military administration. Another 48 people are listed as missing. According to him, the aerial bomb hit a school building while humanitarian aid was being distributed there. Clearing of the rubble continues, and the region has declared a day of mourning.

The number of people injured in a strike on Kharkiv City Clinical Hospital has risen to 73, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said. Those injured include patients, medical workers and residents of neighboring buildings, the Prosecutor General's Office said.

Zelensky called it telling that Russia struck on the day of elections to the U.S. Congress, and urged help for Ukrainian troops in defending the country from the air.

Accounts differ: figures on the death toll from the Dnipro strike varied across reports. One death was reported first, then Hanja reported two dead and 20 wounded, while the State Emergency Service reported 20 injured and the body of one victim recovered from the rubble.
