On the 4th of February, Russian forces struck the center of the town with a ballistic missile.
As a result of the attack, 5 people were killed. Over 55 were injured, including three children — a 6-year-old boy and girls aged 16 and 14. In total, 24 victims were hospitalized, three of whom are in severe condition.
The strike partially destroyed administrative buildings housing the tax service, social security office, treasury and other government institutions. A five-story residential building was also damaged – such are the consequences of the Russian attack on the Ukrainian town.
Search and rescue operation has now been completed. The relevant services continue working to eliminate the consequences of the shelling.
