Berlin.- Two adults and an eight-year-old child died this Monday in Dnipropetrovsk, in central Ukraine, as a result of a Russian attack that hit a gas station, according to regional authorities.

The head of the regional administration, Oleksandr Ganzha, reported on Telegram that “three people died in a hostile attack on the Shirokivsk municipality in the Krivi Rig district” and published a photo of a charred vehicle at a gas station.

Later, he detailed that one of the fatalities was an eight-year-old boy and that six people were injured and have had to be hospitalized, of whom a 49-year-old man is in serious condition.

Since April, Russian forces have begun systematically attacking gas stations in various regions of Ukraine, in retaliation for Ukrainian strikes against refineries and other infrastructure in the Russian rear that help supply the Army.

This very Monday, three people were injured in the southern Ukrainian region of Zaporizhzhia due to a Russian drone strike on a gas station.
