Kryvyi Rih, the hometown of President Volodymyr Zelensky, remains a frequent target of Russia’s missile attacks.
Since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Moscow’s forces have attacked military and civilian sites across the country using missiles and drones. Kryvyi Rih, with a population of around 660,000, is the second-largest city in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. The city is about 70 kilometers northwest of its nearest front-line zone.
