A Russian guided aerial bomb attack on Zaporizhzhia killed three people and injured at least 78 others, local authorities reported. Six bombs struck four locations, hitting industrial and warehouse facilities as well as residential areas.

The number includes 1,600 casualties that Russian forces suffered over the past day.
