One person killed, 19 wounded: Russian troops attacked a high-rise building in the Kyiv region

On the night of 30 November, the enemy launched another missile strike on the residential and industrial sectors of Vyshgorod.

Currently, 146 people have been evacuated from the high-rise building. As a result of the strike, one person was killed and six were injured. This was reported by the press service of the State Emergency Service.

Firefighting operations are ongoing. More than 90 rescuers and 18 pieces of equipment are working at the scene.

Local residents are receiving psychological assistance and support from the Red Cross Society.

The attack caused a fire and partial destruction in the high-rise building: the flames engulfed apartments from the 1st to the 6th floor of the nine-storey building.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky commented on the brutal attack by the Russians. He said that Russia had attacked the city with drones. As a result of the shelling by Russian troops, a large number of residential buildings were damaged. As of now, it is known that there are casualties: 19 people were wounded, including children.

‘One person lost their life in this attack. My condolences to their family and friends. There are wounded in the Dnipropetrovsk and Kharkiv regions. They also hit the Odesa, Sumy and Kherson regions. In total, there were 122 strike drones and two ballistic missiles overnight,’ he said.

Such attacks occur daily. This week alone, the Russians have used nearly 1,400 strike drones, 1,100 guided aerial bombs, and 66 missiles against Ukrainians. According to the politician, this is why Ukraine’s resilience must be strengthened every day. Missiles and air defence systems are necessary, and it is also necessary to actively work with partners for peace. Real, reliable solutions are needed to help end the war.

On 29 November, Russian troops attacked Kyiv and the surrounding region. Dozens of people were injured as a result of the shelling.
