On Friday, July 3, Russian forces struck an enterprise in Zaporizhzhia with guided aerial bombs (KABs). One person was killed in the attack, according to a statement by the head of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration, Ivan Fedorov.
According to preliminary information, one person was killed, and five others were injured in the enemy attack.
Later, Russian forces launched another strike on Zaporizhzhia, injuring civilians.
"Another act of terror: the Russians attacked civilians in broad daylight. The enemy has once again proven that its target is ordinary people. Two women who were simply walking down the street were injured in the attack," Fedorov stressed.

On July 2, Russian jet-powered drones attacked Zaporizhzhia, damaging a branch of the Yuvileinyi meat-processing plant. Following the strike, the company was forced to suspend operations, although no casualties were reported thanks to a fortunate coincidence.
Earlier, on June 30, the Russian army carried out a massive guided aerial bomb attack on Zaporizhzhia. At least two people were killed, and 15 others were injured.
A day before that, on June 29, the occupying forces struck a shuttle bus and a regular bus in Zaporizhzhia. Seven people were injured, including two children.
In addition, the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine's Ministry of Defense recently reported that the Russian military command had ordered an intensification of drone attacks on civilian infrastructure in Zaporizhzhia.
