13 killed, 30 injured in Russian strike, President Volodymy Zelenskyy Condemns Attack

Kyiv: At least 13 people were killed and 30 others injured in a Russian-guided bomb attack on Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia, according to officials, Al Jazeera reported. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that 13 people were killed in the attack and offered condolences to the families of the victims.

Zelenskyy shared a video on X (formerly Twitter) which showed bloodied civilians lying on the street being treated by emergency services and firefighters trying to contain the fire.

While sharing a video on X, Zelenskyy stated, “Russians struck Zaporizhzhia with aerial bombs. It was a deliberate strike on the city. As of now, dozens of people are reported wounded. All are receiving the necessary assistance. Tragically, we know of 13 people killed.”

“My condolences to their families and loved ones. Regrettably, the number of casualties may increase. There is nothing more cruel than launching aerial bombs on a city, knowing that ordinary civilians will suffer. Russia must be put under pressure for its terror. The protection of lives in Ukraine must be supported. Only through strength can such a war be ended with a lasting peace,” he added. (ANI)
