Ukrainian officials have raised the death toll from the recent aid strike in the Zaporizhia region to at least 50.

The strike, which occurred in the southeastern part of the country, has prompted a renewed search for survivors and a reassessment of casualties.

Officials say DNA tests are being used to identify bodies recovered from the wreckage, a process that is helping to confirm the identities of those who have died.

In addition to the confirmed deaths, up to 39 people remain trapped under rubble, according to the authorities.

Rescue teams are continuing their efforts to locate and extract survivors, while investigators work to determine the full extent of the incident.
