Eight people were killed in an overnight attack on holiday camps in a Russian-held part of Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia region, according to Russian-installed local authorities. Officials said the dead included two children.
The account came from the governor of the occupied territory, who said the sites were struck during the night. Local authorities in the area accused Ukraine of deliberately targeting civilians.
The reported attack adds to the continuing violence in and around occupied areas of southern Ukraine, where both military activity and civilian casualties remain a regular feature of the war. Holiday camps are typically associated with отдыха and family stays, making the reported deaths of children especially notable in the officials’ statement.
Based on the information available, the casualty figures and the accusation against Ukraine were presented by Russian-installed authorities in the region. No further details were provided in the snippet about the exact location of the camps or any independent confirmation of the incident.
