Russian strikes injure 52 across Ukraine; drone barrage kills 3 in Kropyvnytskyi

Russian strikes across Ukraine injured 52 people in a single day, with an overnight drone barrage killing three in Kropyvnytskyi and damaging energy infrastructure in Kyiv, cutting water pressure in four districts. The strikes continue a sustained pattern of attacks on civilian and energy infrastructure, with no indication of de-escalation. The incident underscores the ongoing humanitarian and infrastructure toll of the conflict, though it does not represent a significant tactical or strategic shift.
