  • Regional authorities said the strike killed two 18‑year‑olds and wounded at least 11 people, including three children aged 15, 12, and 11, with the 15‑year‑old in extremely serious condition.
  • The State Emergency Service reported that firefighters extinguished fires after four cars caught fire, and psychologists helped 12 people, including two children, while emergency rescue operations finished.
  • At the time of the attack, an air alert had been active for about 23 hours amid a surge of strikes before the fourth anniversary of the invasion in regions Russia claims to have annexed, including Zaporizhzhia.
