Russian strikes caused fires at industrial facilities in the Poltava region. In the Donetsk region, part of Sloviansk was left without power.

This was reported by the State Emergency Service and the press office of the Sloviansk City Military Administration.

In the Kremenchuk District of Poltava Oblast, two industrial facilities caught fire as a result of Russian shelling. 

Rescuers immediately extinguished the fire at one of them, but at the other, they were unable to safely begin firefighting operations for some time due to the threat of further strikes
