In Kyiv, rescue operations have been ongoing for more than 30 hours following the recent strike.
This was reported by the Minister of Internal Affairs, Ihor Klymenko, via Telegram.
Rescuers dismantled the main structures of the collapsed building to ensure that no one was trapped underneath. Emergency recovery efforts are underway so that residents of the unaffected apartments can quickly retrieve their belongings. Since last night, thousands of Ministry of Internal Affairs personnel have been working at the strike sites in the capital, changing every few hours. Hundreds of units of equipment, robots, and aviation have been deployed. Unfortunately, during the attack on Kyiv, 23 individuals could not be saved, including 4 children. The youngest victim was only 2 years old. Some bodies remain unidentified, and 8 people are out of contact with their families. Investigators and experts are meticulously examining each fact. Emergency services have rescued 17 individuals from the rubble, including 4 children. The total number of injured exceeds 50 people. All victims are receiving assistance, including support in recovering documents and documenting damaged property — over 1100 claims have already been filed. Thank you to everyone who is working at the sites of Russian strikes and helping people during these difficult times. Eternal memory to all those who lost their lives due to the terrorist attack by Russia.
