According to available reports, the strikes hit residential buildings, kindergartens, and stores. Humanitarian organizations are providing first aid, psychological support, repair materials, and other emergency services to those affected.
On the eve, UN Under-Secretary-General for Political and Peacebuilding Affairs Rosemary DiCarlo, speaking to the Security Council, stated that the situation in the country "worse than ever".
The situation around the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant
The Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) in southern Ukraine was today disconnected from the 750 kV Dniprovska transmission line. As a result, the facility is dependent on a single backup line for external power supply.
The station has been under Russian control since March 4, 2022, and has been repeatedly damaged by shelling since then.
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Director General Rafael Grossi said the agency's experts are monitoring the situation and consulting with both sides on establishing a local ceasefire that would allow the damaged power line to be repaired.
