Ukraine releases bodycam video showing Russian double-tap bombing in Zaporizhzhia

Situation Overview

On 4 November 2026, Ukraine’s national police released bodycam footage showing what it said was a Russian “double-tap” bombing in the Zaporizhzhia region village of Komyshuvakha. The video depicts devastation after an initial bomb strike, followed by a warning over a two-way radio that more glide bombs were being launched toward Kamyshuvakha. The footage shows residents moving into a shelter, described by Ukraine as being near a local school used to distribute humanitarian aid. Seconds later, the shelter is hit and the recording stops. Ukraine said nine aerial bombs were dropped, first hitting people who came for humanitarian aid and then rescuers and police officers who arrived. BBC Verify confirmed the bodycam video was filmed in the same place as footage released by Ukraine’s State Emergency Service (DSNS) showing the aftermath of an attack reported from Monday in Komyshuvakha.
