Top news from Zaporizhzhia: Mykhailo Semikin said the number of people injured in the Russian attack on 13 November rose to 50, including eight children. Patrol Police said two people were killed in the strike, including a 17-year-old boy.
Semikin, who heads the Zaporizhzhia Oblast Military Administration, posted the revised toll on Telegram. Earlier reports on the same day had said one man was dead and 30 people were injured, including six children.
Zaporizhzhia and Kosmichnyi district
The strike hit an industrial facility and a five-storey residential building in Kosmichnyi district. Residents of Zaporizhzhia were pulled into the same attack as guided aerial bombs, drones and multiple rocket launchers hit the city, according to Patrol Police.
The casualty figures changed during the day. On the morning of 13 November, Russian forces struck a residential area of Zaporizhzhia, killing a teenager and injuring four other people. Later reporting raised the injury count first to 30 and then to 50.
Patrol Police toll
Patrol Police said the two people killed in the Russian attack on Zaporizhzhia included the 17-year-old boy. That revision left the day’s death toll higher than the earlier account that listed one man dead.
For residents of Zaporizhzhia, the updated figures are the clearest count available from the day’s strike: 50 injured, eight of them children, and two dead. No further official update was given beyond the revised casualty figures.
