RUSSIA STRIKES ZAPORIZHZHIA HIGH-RISE—FIVE CHILDREN AMONG THE INJURED
Russian forces have struck a residential high-rise in Zaporizhzhia, injuring at least 13 people—including five children.
The impact damaged apartments and left residents trapped inside their homes. State Emergency Service crews have freed 14 people from the building while firefighters, medics and search teams continue working at the scene.
The full number of casualties is still being established, and authorities have warned that the preliminary toll may change as emergency workers inspect the damaged apartments.
This was a residential building filled with Ukrainian families. Children were injured inside the place where they should have been safest—their own home.
Russia continues to direct its weapons into Ukrainian neighborhoods, leaving rescuers to search shattered apartments for the people trapped within them.
