Russian Drones Hit Zaporizhzhia After Ukraine's Largest Strike on Moscow
Russian drones attacked Zaporizhzhia overnight, damaging civilian infrastructure and wounding six people, following Ukraine's largest drone strike on Moscow since the war began. The attacks underscore stalled diplomatic efforts to end the conflict. Ukrainian air defenses intercepted 148 of 172 Russian drones launched overnight. The Zaporizhzhia strike damaged residential buildings, a university, and a shopping center. Russia also hit nine other Ukrainian regions, killing one woman in Kharkiv Oblast. The escalation comes as world leaders gather for the UN General Assembly, where President Zelenskyy plans to meet US President Trump. Russia's Foreign Minister Lavrov will represent Moscow, as President Putin will not attend.
