Russian forces carried out over 800 attacks in Zaporizhzhya Oblast within a 24-hour period, resulting in six injuries, including a child, according to Regional Governor Ivan Fedorov. The assaults targeted 52 towns and villages, with 25 airstrikes hitting 18 settlements, including Komyshuvakha and the regional capital. Russian forces also deployed 601 drones, primarily FPV models, striking Zaporizhzhya and around 40 other communities.

Additionally, five multiple-launch rocket system attacks and 188 artillery strikes were launched against frontline towns and villages. The onslaught caused significant damage to infrastructure, homes, and vehicles, with explosions heard in Zaporizhzhia around 9:30 a.m. on November 9. The Ukrainian Air Force had warned of incoming Russian aerial bombs at the time.

The village of Komyshuvakha was hit on November 2, with two guided aerial bombs dropped on a school being used as a humanitarian aid distribution center. A massive FAB-3000 bomb struck the school's underground shelter, killing at least 55 people and leaving dozens more potentially trapped under the rubble.
