On the morning of 15 May, the Russian military attacked the city of Zaporizhzhya, according to Ivan Fedorov, head of the regional military administration.

“The strike hit an industrial infrastructure facility. A tanker containing fuel and lubricants was damaged, causing black smoke to rise over the city,” Fedorov wrote.

According to Fedorov, one person was killed and three others were injured as a result of the attack. Doctors describe the condition of two of the injured as critical, while another man is in a serious condition. All the victims have been hospitalised and are receiving the necessary medical care.
