One person was killed and 16 were wounded as a result of Russian attacks on Zaporizhzhia

Over the past 24 hours, Russian occupation forces have carried out a massive shelling of the Zaporizhzhia region, resulting in one death and 16 injuries of varying severity

As of this morning, cleanup efforts are underway in five districts of the city of Zaporizhzhia following the attacks. 

Damage has been reported to 42 residential buildings, including 7 apartment buildings and 35 single-family homes, as well as a number of non-residential structures. 

The shock waves caused significant destruction: windows were shattered, and balconies and roofs were damaged.

In total, over the past 24 hours, the occupiers carried out 912 strikes on 56 settlements in the region, using a wide range of weapons. 

The enemy carried out 24 airstrikes on targets in Zaporizhzhia and surrounding villages, including Kushuhum, Balabine, and Hryhorivka. 

The aerial terror was accompanied by the widespread use of unmanned aerial vehicles.

Defense forces recorded 607 attacks by various types of UAVs, primarily FPV drones, which were deliberately targeted at civilian infrastructure in dozens of settlements. 

In addition, Russian forces used multiple-launch rocket systems—24 attacks were documented on locations such as Lukyanivske, Novodanilivka, and Mala Tokmachka.

Ivan Fedorov, head of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration, reported on the consequences of the enemy’s aggression.

As a result of a massive Russian strike on the capital, a rented humanitarian warehouse belonging to the Ukrainian Red Cross was completely destroyed; it had stored over 320,000 items of cargo and equipment with a total value of more than 79 million hryvnias

As a result of Russian shelling and a fire at one of the capital’s enterprises, fuel and lubricants flowed into Kyrylivskyi Lake in Kyiv through the storm sewer system.
