Russia Strikes Residential Area in Zaporizhzhia, Killing Two Civilians

On the 410th day of the Russia-Ukraine war, Russian forces struck a residential building in the southeastern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia on Sunday morning, killing a 50-year-old man and his 11-year-old daughter. Authorities say that 18 other communities in the region were also shelled, resulting in three deaths and five injuries on Saturday. Ukrainian-held territory allegedly fired a missile that was shot down over the Black Sea town of Feodosiya in Russian-controlled Crimea on Saturday as well. British military intelligence reports that Russian forces are threatening a vital supply route to Bakhmut, the focus of Ukraine's defense against Russian assault for months. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed the attack on Zaporizhzhia, saying that Russia "puts itself in even greater isolation from the world and from humanity" by hitting homes on the Orthodox Church's Palm Sunday. Zelenskyy also marked Christian Easter, saying Ukraine fights for freedom and values life, respect, and equality. Ukrainian Muslims also attended an iftar fast-breaking dinner with the president.
