Russian forces attacked Zaporizhzhia overnight on July 8 with guided aerial bombs. Three people were injured in the strikes, and more than 15,000 customers were left without electricity, Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration head Ivan Fedorov said.
At around 4:36 a.m., authorities warned of the threat of guided bomb attacks on Zaporizhzhia region and the city of Zaporizhzhia. Minutes later, Fedorov reported explosions.
According to him, one of the strikes hit a food industry enterprise. The facility’s premises were destroyed, and a 43-year-old employee was injured. He is receiving all necessary medical assistance.
Another Russian guided aerial bomb hit the territory of a garage cooperative, destroying and damaging buildings.
