A deadly Russian rocket attack left one dead and at least five people injured after they slammed into buildings in the city of Zaporizhzhia.
The death toll from a missile attack on apartment buildings in a southern Ukrainian city rose to 17 as more Russian missiles and — for the first time — explosive packed drones targeted Ukrainian-held Zaporizhzhia on Friday. As the war sparked by Russia's February invasion of its neighbor ground on, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to human rights organizations in Russia and Ukraine, and an activist jailed in Russian ally Belarus.
Asked by a reporter whether the prize shared by Belarus rights activist Ales Bialiatski, the Russian group Memorial and the Ukrainian organization Center for Civil Liberties should be seen as a "birthday gift" to Russian President Vladimir Putin, who turned 70 on Friday, committee chair Berit Reiss-Andersen said no.
"The prize is not addressing President Putin, not for his birthday or in any other sense, except that his government, as the government in Belarus, is representing an authoritarian government that is suppressing human rights activists," Reiss-Andersen said.
