A Russian airstrike on Zaporizhzhia killed one woman and injured 23 people, including two children, on Tuesday. Guided bombs struck residential areas, as drone attacks also hit Kherson and Kharkiv, Ukrainian officials said.
The strike reportedly damaged residential buildings and an unspecified infrastructure facility. Photos shared by local officials show a multi-story building with burned upper floors and emergency workers assisting the injured.
Fedorov stated that a 14-year-old and a four-year-old boy were among those receiving medical treatment. One of the bombs reportedly landed in a densely populated area around 11:40 a.m. local time (0840 GMT).
Zaporizhzhia, located about 50 km from the front lines, is a key industrial and logistical center and has frequently come under attack amid the ongoing conflict. Part of the region remains under Russian control and houses Europe’s largest nuclear power plant.
Elsewhere, regional authorities reported drone attacks in the southern city of Kherson and northeastern Kharkiv. Four people were injured and a hospital was damaged in Kherson, according to Governor Oleksander Prokudin.
There was no immediate comment from Russian officials.
