Zaporizhzhia city hall shares details of recent Russian missile strike
Civil infrastructure was damaged as a result of a Russian missile attack on the city of Zaporizhzhia, Zaporizhzhia city council secretary Anatoly Kurtev said on his Telegram channel on Aug. 24.
He noted that windows were blown out and window frames were destroyed in six residential high-rise buildings. Emergency services are already on site, though the attack did not cause any casualties.
The missiles struck the city overnight on Aug. 24. Aug. 24 is also Ukraine’s 31st Independence Day, and Ukrainian authorities have warned of the risk of increased Russian attacks against Ukraine on that day.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs has urged Ukrainians to be vigilant and not ignore air raid alarms as a result, while the Ukrainian military’s Operational Command South reported that Russia had increased the number of its missile carriers operating on the Black Sea.
