The State Emergency Service had previously reported that about twenty people, “including a 9-year-old boy, could remain under the rubble” of the bombed-out residential building in the city of Chasiv Yar.
The civil building was hit, according to sources, by a Russian missile. The Ukrainian president, Volodímir Zelenski, also spoke about that attack launched by the Russian army on Sunday.
In his usual nightly address through the Telegram social network, Zelenski said that the Russian attack was carried out with missiles against two buildings high rise of the city, which were destroyed.
Unfortunately this number (of victims) is not the final number.
According to him, the rescue teams continue their work to find and rescue the people who were trapped under them from the rubble.
The Ukrainian leader stressed that his country’s army remains “steadfast and repels assaults in different directions” and questioned the “supposed operational pause” in the actions of the Russian occupiers in Donbas and other parts of Ukraine this last week.
“An answer to all those who came up with (talking about) this ‘pause’ is the 34 raids by Russian aviation in the last 24 hours,” Zelensky said before asking citizens for unity: “In this war, only we can be together, absolutely all of us, Ukrainians”.
