ZAPORIZHZHIA — Russian strikes on Friday killed one person in Zaporizhzhia and two people in Odesa. Reuters reported the two cities apart. This desk does not add the dead into one figure.
In Zaporizhzhia a five-story apartment building was hit and badly damaged. Regional Governor Mykhailo Semikin said a rescue worker was killed when a concrete slab fell while crews were clearing rubble. More than 50 people were injured there. Semikin said six of them were children.
In Odesa, Serhiy Lysak, head of the city’s military administration, said two people died in an attack on a private house. Five people were injured. Two of those five were in serious condition. That is Odesa’s count. It is not folded into Zaporizhzhia’s.
Friday morning’s note in this paper carried an earlier Associated Press count from Zaporizhzhia: 13 injured, including five children, with the emergency service still clarifying the number. Reuters’s later count is the one above. The 13 and the 50 are not added.
