Unfortunately, operational information is often subject to revision, as search and rescue operations may uncover body parts initially recorded as separate casualties. Final confirmation is provided by forensic experts after analysis in a mobile DNA lab." – stated the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Ihor Klymenko
The minister noted that rescuers and police continue to work at the sites of the strikes on residential infrastructure.
The rescue operation is ongoing at two locations in Kyiv. There are still people trapped under the rubble, so the work will not stop until everyone is found, – Klymenko assured.
