In the early hours of June 7, Russian forces launched a series of attacks on the city of Zaporizhzhia, resulting in a partial blackout across the area. This information was confirmed by Ivan Fedorov, the head of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration, via Telegram.
According to Fedorov, the assaults persisted throughout the night, with threats reported from various aerial sources, including drones and guided bombs. Alarms were raised due to the potential use of ballistic missiles.
By morning, the attacks continued in the region, contributing to the ongoing instability in Zaporizhzhia. The bombardment led to power outages in one of the city’s districts, prompting energy crews to mobilize in an effort to restore electricity to affected consumers.
Fedorov further reported that the Russian strikes had ignited a fire in the city, with emergency services dispatched to the scene to manage the situation.
