A Russian missile attack on Ukraine's Dnipropetrovsk region on Thursday morning damaged an infrastructure facility and an enterprise, a local official said.

Two people were injured and were hospitalized, the regional governor said on Telegram.

The attack caused fires at two sites, he added. Ukraine's air force issued a warning of a ballistic missile threat ahead of the strike.

Russia has stepped up combined missile and drone strikes targeting Ukraine's power grid since mid-March, resulting in significant damage.

It has also increased its use of harder-to-intercept ballistic missiles.
