Bombing in the early hours yesterday Sunday destroyed apartment buildings, killing at least 13 people and injuring 87 others, including 10 children.

While in the early hours of Thursday morning, rocket strikes in Zaporizhia killed 18 people, including a child.

On September 30, 31 people were killed on the outskirts of the same city, in a parking lot, when a rocket hit the site. Apart from one policeman who was killed, the remaining thirty wanted to reach some part of Ukraine under Russian control.

Zaporizhia, which is controlled by the Ukrainian military, is the capital of the region of the same name, one of four recently annexed by Russia. The Russian armed forces control about 70% of the region.

The industrial city is some sixty kilometers northeast of the country’s—and Europe’s—largest nuclear power plant, which the Russian armed forces have held since early March. Kyiv and Moscow have been accusing each other of bombing the facility for months.
