How to zip and unzip files using google app script?

I want that to be attached in a mail I send. I am working on an automated sheet that logs the issue and solutions are drawn as a drawing from people. So I want that to pass on to other person via an automated mail.

I will be happy if anybody knows how to attach multiple files in drive with a specific name using app script.

As an addition to the comment, you can use the code below from the SO post to send an email with multiple attachments.

function sendEmail() {

var Rainfall = DriveApp.getFilesByName('Files1.doc')
var Rainfall2 = DriveApp.getFilesByName('Files2.png')

MailApp.sendEmail({
to:"mymail@gmail.com", 
subject: "Images for Social Media", 
body:"Hi Joe, here are the images for Social Media",


attachments: [Rainfall.next(), Rainfall2.next()]
  })

}
sendEmail()

Note: Change the value of Files1.doc and the rest to the file you needed to be sent.
