Restoration of apartment block damaged by Russian attack in Zaporizhzhia

Pigeons fly past a nine-storey apartment block on Motorobudivnykiv Avenue in Zaporizhzhia, Ukraine, on April 10, 2026. The building is being restored after an incident on April 22, 2025, when two aerial bombs struck the southeastern city, one hitting a residential high-rise and the other an infrastructure facility. The event significantly damaged or partially destroyed the three upper floors of the apartment block, resulting in the death of a 55-year-old woman and injuring 23 others.
