Guardian, 09 Oct 2022
Rescuers look for the dead and wounded in the aftermath of Russian shelling in the southern Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia, which left at least 12 dead. The city council secretary, Anatoliy Kurtev, said rockets had struck the city overnight, and at least 20 private homes and 50 apartment buildings had been damaged. 
'Why are they bombing us?' asks one emotional resident, standing among broken glass inside her building. The attack happened in the aftermath of a devastating explosion on a key bridge linking Russian-occupied Crimea to the Russian mainland, which serves as an important military supply route.
