An overnight drone attack on a holiday camp in a Russian-held part of Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia region has resulted in significant casualties, according to reports from multiple sources. Russian-installed local authorities reported at least 11 people killed, including five children, and accused Ukraine of deliberately targeting civilians at the facility.
Al Jazeera reported that at least 11 were killed in the holiday camp attack, while also noting that at least eight people were killed in separate Ukrainian attacks on Russian-controlled areas. The reports indicate ongoing military strikes affecting civilian infrastructure in the region.
The conflicting accusations and casualty figures between Ukrainian and Russian sources reflect the broader contested nature of reports from the active conflict zone, where both sides dispute responsibility for attacks on civilian areas.
