According to Novyny.live: The number of fatalities from the June 2 attack on Dnipro has climbed to 12. The assault included a fresh barrage that left an additional apartment building damaged. Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration head Oleksandr Ganzha confirmed the tragic update.
Earlier shelling on the same day had already claimed 6 lives and wounded 36 others. Overnight into June 2, Russian forces struck five districts across the Dnipropetrovsk region, causing widespread destruction and civilian casualties.

On-the-Ground Situation
The targeting of residential towers is further evidence of the scale and brutality of the aggression faced by the local population. Tensions remain high as civilians continue to bear the brunt of military hostilities.
This event underscores the prolonged crisis in Ukraine, ongoing since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion. Armed strikes on civilian infrastructure—such as apartment blocks—not only cause mass casualties but also erode public morale. Authorities and the international community continue to highlight the humanitarian toll of the conflict, working to provide aid to victims and implement measures to protect non-combatants.
