11 wounded in southern Ukraine in Russian strikes

At least 11 people were wounded on Sunday in a series of Russian strikes on Zaporizhzhia in southern Ukraine, emergency services announced.
The regional capital was hit by several “massive aerial strikes” at dawn, Ukrainian emergency services said in a statement.
“A building and six houses in different city neighborhoods suffered a lot of destruction,” said the statement, adding that 42 members of the emergency services were helping those potentially trapped under the rubble.
“According to preliminary information, the number of wounded people has risen to 11,” said the emergency services, adding that rescue operations had ended.
A woman dragged from the rubble was taken to the hospital.
Regional governor Ivan Fedorov had earlier said that six people were wounded.
He said that Zaporizhzhia was hit by 10 Russian strikes that destroyed “one multistory building and some houses.”
Andriy Yermak, the head of the office of the president, hit out in a social media post at an attempt to “terrorize” the civilian population.
Yermak also reiterated his called on Western allies to supply more weapons to intercept Russian missiles and apply more economic sanctions against Moscow.
Russia annexed the Zaporizhzhia region in 2022, but the main city of the same name remains under Kyiv’s control.
