A devastating Russian glide bomb attack targeted a residential district in Zaporizhzhia, southern Ukraine, resulting in the deaths of five individuals and injuring ten others, including a teenage girl. The assault, which occurred overnight, damaged high-rise apartment buildings and a local market, marking the third such incident in the city since the war began. The glide bomb, a modified Soviet-era weapon launched from high-altitude Russian jets, has proven devastating for Ukraine’s frontline cities, with no effective countermeasures currently available. This attack follows a recent barrage of Russian drones and missiles on Ternopil, which claimed 31 lives, including six children, and left 94 injured. Meanwhile, Ukrainian officials are evaluating a U.S. proposal to end the conflict, as President Volodymyr Zelenskyy anticipates discussions with U.S. President Donald Trump. The relentless targeting of civilian areas underscores the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Ukraine, nearly four years after Russia’s full-scale invasion.
