Ivan Fedorov, the head of Zaporizhzhya OVA, reported in Telegram:
"Rescuers retrieved the woman's body from the rubble of the building destroyed by a Russian missile on December 10. Thus, the number of dead increased to ten. 22 people were injured."
Rescue operations are still ongoing at the scene of the tragedy. According to Fedorov, one more person may be under the rubble.
A rocket attack on the center of Zaporizhzhia destroyed civilian infrastructure, including a private clinic, damaged about 20 residential buildings and three non-residential buildings.
