Nationwide barrage continues The attack on Chernihiv followed a series of daytime and overnight strikes across Ukraine that caused further casualties and infrastructure damage. Earlier on the afternoon of July 26, Russian forces launched guided aerial bombs at the southern city of Zaporizhzhia, killing one person and injuring six others. The guided bombs struck a gas station and warehouse facilities, destroying a vehicle. The blast wave and falling debris also damaged a multi-story residential building and a nearby educational institution. The prosecutor’s office has initiated a pre-trial investigation into the incident under the classification of a war crime resulting in death. These daytime attacks followed a massive overnight drone and missile barrage. In the northeastern city of Kharkiv, the casualty toll from a drone strike on a residential neighborhood rose to one confirmed fatality and 14 injured individuals, including two children. Earlier on Sunday morning, a separate fiber-optic FPV drone struck a bakery delivery truck in the city’s Shevchenkivskyi district, injuring the 43-year-old driver.
