Last night at 1:54, Oleksandr Starukh, the head of the Zaporizhzhia Oblast Military Administration, reported another Russian attack on the central-Ukrainian regional capital of Zaporizhzhia:
“Another enemy attack! Stay in shelters! The enemy continues to terrorize the city. There are about a half score of new impacts. Consequences are being established. Take care of yourself and your loved ones. Follow the safety rules. Let’s help each other,” he wrote.
At 3:05, the Zaporizhzhia Oblast Head updated on the situation:
“The terror of the enemy continues. As a result of the missile attack on the center of Zaporizhzhia, a multi-story residential building was destroyed again. There are victims. Rescuers, medics, and all relevant services are working in the site of the tragedy. People receive the necessary help. Let’s hold on!”
Zaporizhzhia City Council Secretary Anatolii Kurtiev says that the Russian attack killed at least one as rescuers continue working at the scene:
“This night saw Russian terrorists once again take a civilian life. As of six o’clock in the morning, it’s known about one dead person. Sincere condolences to their family and friends. Five more people were injured. Among those injured is one child who has cuts from glass fragments. Search and rescue operations are ongoing. Russia is a terrorist country.”
