Large-scale assault on Zaporizhzhia by Russia results in one fatality and 22 injuries - photographs and videos available
In the early hours of August 29, 2022, Zaporizhzhia, a city in Ukraine, was subjected to a large-scale attack by Russian forces. The assault, which occurred at 06:20, involved the use of attack drones and missiles.
The initial reports indicated that three people were injured as a result of the attack. However, by around 07:00, Fedorov reported an increase in the number of casualties, with the total now at 22. Among the injured are three children - boys aged 9 and 10 and a 16-year-old girl. Unfortunately, one person was killed in the attack.
Around 06:00, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES) reported strikes on two five-storey buildings and five houses. As a result of the attack, 14 apartment blocks and more than 40 houses have been damaged. Fires have broken out as a result of the attack, but no new information about them has been provided.
Power supply disruptions have been recorded following the attack, and in some districts of Zaporizhzhia, power had been cut off. The damaged buildings have been disconnected from electricity and gas supplies. No new information about the power supply disruptions has been provided.
Houses were destroyed, and apartment blocks and industrial facilities were damaged. No new information about the number of houses destroyed or apartment blocks and industrial facilities damaged has been provided in this paragraph.
Early reports indicate that Russia used Iranian-made Shahed 136 drones, designated "Geran-2" by Russia, for attacks including on Zaporizhzhia in late 2022. However, the Russian unit responsible for the attack on Zaporizhzhia on August 29 was not explicitly identified in the provided search results.
This attack on Zaporizhzhia is just one more example of the ongoing conflict and destruction caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Our thoughts are with the people of Zaporizhzhia during this difficult time.
