Russian forces in the evening and at night struck ten regions of Ukraine. The attacks left a dead and several wounded, homes and civilian infrastructure damaged. This is reported by Glavkom, citing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.
The Zaporizhzhia region endured an especially intense Russian strike. According to the president, the attack on the city lasted from the evening. The shelling damaged nine-story residential buildings, a college building, a shopping mall, and a boiler room.
As of the morning, five people were known to be injured in Zaporizhzhia. Some residents were evacuated. “The very brutal, targeted Russian shelling of Zaporizhzhia began in the evening. Nine-story residential buildings, a university building, a shopping mall, and a boiler room were damaged. As of now, five people are injured and some residents have been evacuated,” Zelenskiy said.
Russian forces also attacked Lozova in Kharkiv region. A woman died as a result of a drone strike, and three more people were injured.
“In Lozova in Kharkiv region, a woman died due to a drone strike. My condolences to the relatives and close ones. Three more people were wounded. In total, in the evening and during the night, the Russians launched strikes on ten of our regions,” the president noted.
Zelenskiy emphasized that Russia continues escalation actions. In his view, Moscow’s actions also indicate willingness to widen the war.
“Russia is not reducing its escalation steps and signals a readiness to widen the war. All this is happening against the backdrop of a world whose stability has already been broken by this war,” the head of state said.
The president urged continuing pressure on Russia and emphasized the need to combine it with diplomatic efforts.
“We must keep pressuring the aggressor to end this war. Each response and long-range sanctions are pressure that truly works, and the world feels it. But diplomacy must work in parallel. At the UN General Assembly we will talk about how, through joint efforts, we can reach peace. This is the main task that all leaders should engage in. Thank you to everyone who helps,” Zelenskiy concluded.
