(MENAFN- UkrinForm) For over an hour, the Russian forces attacked Zaporizhzhia with missiles, resulting in damage to more than 10 apartment buildings and injuries to two people.
This information was shared by Ivan Fedorov, Chief of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration, on a live TV broadcast, as reported by Ukrinform.
"From 6:40 to around 7:30, the enemy targeted the regional center. Three missiles struck near infrastructure facilities. There were significantly more missiles, but thanks to our Air Defense Forces, some of them did not reach the city. Therefore, residents heard more than three explosions; this was the work of our air defense," Fedorov explained.
According to him, residential buildings, including five-story buildings that had already been repaired after previous attacks, were damaged. From 8:00, municipal workers began addressing the aftermath. In total, more than 10 buildings in Zaporizhzhia have been damaged today alone.
