According to TSN.ua: In the early hours of March 27, enemy drones targeted the city of Kryvyi Rih, hitting both infrastructure and residential areas.

Situation in the Nikopol Area

Intense shelling continues across the Nikopol district, fueling anxiety among local residents. Separately, a controlled industrial blast is scheduled for 2:20 PM on March 27 at the Pivdennyi quarry—an operation vital to the region's economy. The overall security situation remains tense, with local authorities working around the clock to protect civilians.

These events underscore the relentless military activity in the area, which is taking a heavy toll on daily life. Repeated strikes on infrastructure threaten long-term economic stability and public safety, especially as key employers like the Pivdennyi quarry play a critical role in sustaining local jobs. In response, municipal officials are striving to shore up defenses and restore a sense of normalcy.
