In a horrifying twist to the ongoing conflict, Zaporizhzhia, a city already battered by the tumult of war, became the site of another Russian missile attack on Thursday evening. The missile, identified as an Iskander, descended upon a prominent city hotel, losing one life and injuring 16 individuals.

The event was stamped with an unmistakable mark of tragedy as the explosion set a civilian building ablaze. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy expressed his anguish over the dire consequences of the assault. Among the 16 victims, four were children, shining a spotlight on the cruel and non-discriminative nature of these violent strikes.

They were targeting children.

Reikartz Hotel: More Than Just a Building

Zaporizhzhia Governor Yuriy Malashko confirmed that the building hit was none other than the Reikartz Hotel, a known entity located strategically along the Dnipro River. Photos from the scene laid bare the devastation: vehicles lay in ruins, the hotel sign was barely recognizable, and a gaping crater stood as a testament to the missile’s fury.

Denise Brown, the humanitarian coordinator for Ukraine, shared a deeply personal connection to the event. The hotel served as regular accommodation for United Nations personnel and other NGO workers dedicated to aiding those caught in the crossfires of war. She reminisced, “I have stayed in this hotel every time I visited Zaporizhzhia.”

Recurring Nightmare: Zaporizhzhia Under Siege

Sadly, this incident wasn’t an isolated one for Zaporizhzhia. Just 24 hours earlier, a similar missile attack led to the deaths of three individuals, with nine others sustaining injuries. These back-to-back attacks have spotlighted the escalating conflict, prompting urgent calls for global intervention to protect innocent lives and restore peace.
