Ukraine war latest: Russian bomb strikes kill 24 at humanitarian aid center in Zaporizhzhia Oblast

On November 2, Russian airstrikes on a humanitarian aid center in Zaporizhzhia Oblast resulted in 24 fatalities, including rescue workers and police officers. President Zelensky condemned the attacks, emphasizing the targeting of civilians receiving aid. Concurrently, air raid alerts disrupted Ukrainian shopping malls for a record one-third of their operating hours in October, severely impacting the economy. Additionally, Russia has developed a new long-range drone, the Gerbera-2, capable of one-way attacks up to 1,200 kilometers. A Russian Su-57 fighter jet was also reported damaged by an engine fire, potentially linked to fuel quality issues due to Ukrainian strikes on oil facilities.
