Russian Drone Strikes Destroy Epicentr Mall in Mykolaiv, 520 Jobless

Russian drone strikes destroyed the Epicentr K shopping center in Mykolaiv after six strikes in 24 hours, igniting a 42,000-square-meter blaze. The attack is part of an ongoing pattern of strikes on civilian infrastructure, with 520 employees now jobless, many previously displaced from similar sites. This underscores continued Russian targeting of economic assets in southern Ukraine, though the strategic impact is limited beyond local disruption.
