Russian attacks on the southeastern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhya on November 7 have killed four and wounded 40, Internal Affairs Minister Ihor Klymenko said.
The State Service for Emergency Situations said Russian troops carried out five air strikes on the city, hitting a residential building and a hospital.
Klymenko said rescuers pulled two injured children and an injured woman from under the rubble of the residential building. The woman lived on the third floor but ended up on the second floor after the attack caused the building to partially collapse. Rescuers were still searching for people who may be trapped under the rubble, he said on Telegram.
Officials said earlier a hospital had been damaged by an air strike.

Two people were in severe condition, he added.
According to Fedorov, all of the Russian strikes hit civilian infrastructure, including houses and an apartment building.
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, who is attending a summit of European leaders in Budapest, urged Ukraine's allies to provide more arms to help Kyiv defend the skies.
"They take pleasure in killing people," Zelenskiy said on X, referring to Russian forces.
He again called for more air defenses for Ukraine and permission to use Western-supplied weapons to carry out long-range strikes against Russian military targets.
