Russian attack on Ukrainian apartment buildings leaves 12 dead

A RUSSIAN barrage has pounded apartment buildings and other targets in the Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia, killing at least 12 people and wounding dozens, officials said.

The blasts in the city, which sits in a region Moscow has claimed as its own, blew out windows in adjacent buildings and left at least one high-rise apartment building partially collapsed.

The multiple strikes came after an explosion on Saturday caused the partial collapse of a bridge linking the Crimean Peninsula with Russia, damaging an important supply artery for the Kremlin’s faltering war effort in southern Ukraine and hitting a towering symbol of Russian power in the region.
