A Russian attack killed a 15-year-old teenager and her three family members in their home in the village of Lapaivka, Lviv oblast, western Ukraine.
Nine regions came under attack: Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Zaporizhzhia, Chernihiv, Sumy, Kharkiv, Kherson, Odesa, and Kirovohrad. The nationwide toll reached five dead and 10 injured.
Anastasia Hrytsiv was a 10th-grader at Lapaivka Lyceum. Her school announced her death in a statement mourning the loss of the entire family. The strike completely destroyed their home.
The school described her as a "kind, gentle, radiant" student known for her calm smile.
"We cannot believe she won't return to class," the lyceum wrote.
Halyna, a relative, stood at the rubble where the house once stood. She told TV channel Kyiv24 that the direct hit killed her mother's sister, the sister's husband, their daughter-in-law, and 15-year-old Anastasia. Rescuers found the last two bodies severely damaged - "literally torn apart."
"I don't know what to say. This is simply horror," Halyna said, tears streaming down her face.
"In the 21st century, they're [Russia] tormenting a country like this and the world is simply watching. They're [observers] waiting until it hits them, maybe then they'll wake up," Halyna added.
The Lviv Oblast took the heaviest bombardment that night. Russian forces hit residential buildings, hospitals, civilian industrial sites, kindergartens and gas infrastructure.
Eight people across the region sustained injuries. Two residents from neighboring houses required hospitalization, while three others received treatment at the scene.
Prosecutors opened a war crimes investigation under Article 438 of Ukraine's Criminal Code.
The attack also caused power outages in the two districts.
