The death toll from a Russian strike on the village of Komyshuvakha in the Zaporizhzhia region has risen to 31 people, with about 50 more residents considered missing. According to RBC-Ukraine, this was announced by Mykhailo Semikin, head of the Zaporizhzhia Regional Military Administration, during a telethon. Earlier official estimates put the death toll at 29, but the figure was revised as search and rescue operations progressed. According to Semikin, five people were injured, and the fate of approximately 50 village residents remained unknown at the time of the statement. ### Chronology of Strikes: School and Shelter As the publication recalls, on November 2, Russia struck Komyshuvakha twice with guided aerial bombs—according to Ukrainian sources, these were FAB-3000 bombs. The strikes hit a school where humanitarian aid was being distributed at the time, and a shelter where people were gathered. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that the occupiers knew aid was distributed there weekly, which, in his words, makes the attack targeted. ### Rescue Operation and Composition of Casualties Search and rescue operations are ongoing at the scene, Semikin reported, emphasizing that behind every figure stands a specific family. According to the State Emergency Service, among the dead were two rescuers—Denys Konovalenko and Oleksiy Shushhevsky—as well as four police officers. Ukrainian agencies reported that rescuers were among the wounded. On the morning of November 3, the Regional Military Administration reported 48 missing persons; by evening, that figure was described as "about 50." ### Nighttime Massive Attack on Energy Infrastructure The same day was marked by a large-scale strike on energy infrastructure. According to Zelenskyy, Russia launched 289 attack drones, 17 ballistic missiles, and 59 cruise missiles, with power plants and substations in nine oblasts being the main target. Air Force Spokesperson Yuriy Ihnat specified the details: ballistic missiles struck Ukrainian territory around 3:00 AM, and cruise missiles closer to morning. ### Context and Consequences The combination of a targeted strike on a populated area and a massive shelling of the energy system demonstrates, according to Ukrainian authorities, the dual nature of the attacks: strikes on civilian objects and critical infrastructure simultaneously. Search and rescue operations in Komyshuvakha are ongoing, and final data on the dead and missing are expected to be refined as the rubble is cleared. ## Fact-Check & Sources - [В Камышевахе уже более 30 погибших, почти 50 считаются пропавшими](https://www.rbc.ua/ukr/news/komishuvasi-vzhe-ponad-30-zagiblih-mayzhe-1793701047.html) - Primary source: 31 dead, ~50 missing, 5 injured; two strikes on November 2 on a school and shelter; nighttime attack of 289 drones, 17 ballistic and 59 cruise missiles. - [Удар по школе в Камышевахе: число погибших возросло, 48 человек считаются пропавшими](https://zn.ua/war/udar-po-shkole-v-komyshuvase-chislo-pohibshikh-vozroslo-48-chelovek-chisljatsja-propavshimi-bez-vesti.html) - Morning data: 29 dead, 48 missing; FAB-3000 bombs; two rescuers and four police officers among the dead; Semikin's quote. ## FAQ ### How many people died in Komyshuvakha?
