At the same time, Russia's military also fired on the neighboring country. The governor of the region, Ivan Fedorov, announced on Telegram that at least 32 people had been injured in a Russian attack during the night in the southeast Ukrainian city of Zaporizhia.
It had previously been reported that five children were among the injured. Russia had attacked with aerial bombs, hitting high-rise buildings, a school and a company, the Ukrinform news agency reported. The statements from both sides could not initially be independently confirmed.
Ukraine has been defending itself against a Russian invasion for almost four years. As part of the fighting, both warring parties have been attacking each other with drone strikes. However, the extent of the damage and the number of victims are far greater in Ukraine.
