President Volodymyr Zelensky called the Russian attack on civilians an "absolute evil," adding that the Russians are "savages and terrorists." The attack severely damaged a nine-story residential building, with one of the building's sections completely destroyed. Russia has intensified attacks on Ukrainian-controlled Zaporizhzhia after claiming to have annexed the partially occupied Zaporizhzhia Oblast.
