Five people were killed and five hospitalized in Russia’s overnight missile attack on a residential apartment building in Zaporizhzhya on Oct. 18, the regional police reported on Oct. 19.
The five bodies have been recovered and search operations have ended.
The police documented the aftermath and collected evidence of yet another war crime committed by Russia, which legally falls under Part 1, Part 2 of Art. 438 (Violation of the Laws and Customs of War) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
Russia launched six missile strikes on various areas of the city at 1:30 a.m. Russian forces shelled the city with S-300 surface-to-air missile systems, regional governor Yuriy Malashko stated.
One missile hit the high-rise apartment building, shattering windows in nearby buildings, partially destroying city infrastructure, and damaging a local church.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
