"The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) confirms that a warehouse in Dnipro, which was being used for the organization's humanitarian operations, was deliberately struck today by a high-precision Iskander ballistic missile", - the Ukrainian representation of the United Nations (UN) reported.

According to the statement, a significant amount of food intended to support people living near the front line was destroyed in the attack.

At the time of the strike, the facility contained humanitarian food assistance sufficient to support 130,000 people, with an estimated value of $1.4 million. WFP teams are currently on site assessing the extent of damage to the premises, vehicles, and humanitarian aid stocks. All WFP personnel are safe.

"Deliberate attacks on humanitarian workers trying to save innocent civilians affected by war are a crime and a violation of international humanitarian law. This warehouse has now been struck for the second time. In November 2025, it was damaged in a drone attack. Over the past 18 months, WFP has recorded more than 84 incidents affecting its warehouses, vehicles, aid distribution points, and the property of local humanitarian partners across Ukraine", - said Richard Ragan, WFP Representative in Ukraine.
