The five people injured included two women aged 24 and 59, a 36-year-old man, and two Red Cross workers aged 43 and 54, according to Zaporizhzhia regional authorities.
The strike came during a broader overnight Russian drone attack on Ukraine. The Air Force said Russia launched 137 drones, including Shahed-type attack drones and other models. Forty-nine were jet-powered drones.
