The fact, captured by security cameras in the area, shows that some civilian vehicles were passing through the place when the missile hit the building and detonated, something that according to Internet users was captured kilometers from this city.

So far, just over a dozen deaths have been reported at the scene, plus approximately 30 civilians who were injured during the impact. In addition, Ukrainian authorities have determined that the building was completely destroyed.
