Thousands of people were left without an electricity supply as a result of Russian ballistic missile attacks on the Zaporizhzhia district in the evening of June 22, says Ivan Fedorov, head of Zaporizhzhia regional military administration.
"Almost 5,000 residents in the Zaporizhzhya district were left without an electricity supply as a result of a Russian strike. As soon as the security situation allows, power engineers will start repair work," he says.
The Russian attack also caused a fire in a private house. Rescuers quickly extinguished the fire, and there were no casualties.
