In the early hours of February 23, Russian forces launched drone attacks on the city of Zaporizhzhia, leading to the death of a 33-year-old man and injuries to another individual.
According to Ivan Fedorov, the head of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration, the strikes targeted an industrial facility, causing significant damage. He confirmed that the deceased was a local resident, while a 45-year-old man sustained injuries during the assault.
The drone strikes were part of a sustained aerial campaign, with air raid alerts in the city beginning continuously since 5:48 PM the previous day. Throughout the night, Russian forces reportedly carried out multiple attacks across the Zaporizhzhia region using strike drones.
The situation in Zaporizhzhia reflects ongoing military hostilities in Ukraine, where drone warfare has become increasingly prevalent. The attacks have raised concerns about the safety of civilians and the impact on local infrastructure.
Recent drone strikes in Zaporizhzhia by Russian forces resulted in one fatality and one injury, highlighting the ongoing military conflict in the region. Authorities report continuous air raid alerts as attacks persist throughout the night.
