Ceiling crumbles in inform.zp.ua office due to Zaporizhzhia shelling strike

The Russian shelling strike on Zaporizhzhia on March 21 damaged the office of the online media outlet inform.zp.ua: the ceiling in one of the rooms crumbled, reports chief editor Eric Brynza to the Institute of Mass Information representative in Zaporizhzhia oblast, Natalia Vyhovska.

According to him, the office was damaged by the blast wave during the Shahed strike on Zaporizhzhia when one of the drones exploded 300 meters away from the office, on the premises of a kindergarten.

“Thank God, it’s only one room. We had an accounting documents archive there and also used it as a kitchenette. My office is across the wall from this room. The offices with laptops, cameras, and the studio are intact. And that’s very good,” the editor said.

A CCTV camera at the office entrance recorded the damage at 9:04 p.m. There was no one in the editorial office at that time, so there were no casualties.

According to the Telegram channel of the Zaporizhzhia Oblast Military Administration chair Ivan Fedorov, at least 24 high-rise buildings and more than 20 private houses were damaged in the Russian strike on Zaporizhzhia on March 21. The attack killed a family: a father, mother, and 17-year-old daughter. A total of 94 people sought help.

On October 12, 2024, the relocated Holos Hulyaipillya office was damaged in a Russian strike on Zaporizhzhia. Computer equipment, which had been previously transported out of a combat area, was also damaged.
