A series of Russian airstrikes has targeted shopping malls in Ukraine, with the latest attack in Pavlohrad marking the third such strike in recent days, according to local reports. The repeated strikes raise concerns over civilian safety amid ongoing conflict, as commercial areas typically serve as gathering spots for families and shoppers. Authorities have yet to confirm casualties or damage, but the pattern suggests a deliberate shift in military tactics affecting urban infrastructure. Residents and officials are likely assessing the implications for public security and humanitarian aid efforts.
The attack in Pavlohrad city centre was the third Russian strike on a mall within days, local media report.
