The brutal assault on Zaporizhzhia has left five people injured in the early hours of September 23, according to the head of Zaporizhzhia Regional Administration, Ivan Fedorov.
Emergency crews rushed to the scene to provide victims with all necessary aid.
The attack didn’t just stop at injuries. The strike wreaked havoc on several buildings with the shockwave and debris tearing through structures and setting off a raging fire.
Fedorov said that firefighters are battling the blaze and sifting through the wreckage as more details continue to emerge.
This fresh attack comes just days after the Russian military hit Zaporizhzhia District on September 19 with guided aerial bombs. That strike claimed one life and left two more people wounded.
Five armored vehicles “Kozak” have received a new mission – thanks to the support of Metinvest, they have been upgraded to full-fledged command and staff vehicles. These upgraded vehicles are now operating on the front line.
A kamikaze drone flies directly toward an armored personnel carrier. But instead of penetrating the hull, it explodes on a steel screen. The crew survives. This is the new reality for Ukrainian forces, who have received enhanced protection thanks to the Metinvest project within “Steel Front of Rinat Akhmetov”.
To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).
In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.
Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
