Shelling on August 28: Kyiv authorities describe the consequences of the Russian military strike

On August 28, Kyiv suffered a serious attack by Russian invaders. 225 residential buildings were damaged. Currently, 22 people are known to have died. This was reported by the Kyiv City Military Administration.

In all districts of the capital, along with non-residential buildings, damage to garages, courtyards, and public buildings was recorded. In total, more than 5,400 windows and window blocks were broken. Almost 4,000 of them were in the Holosiivskyi district.

Search and rescue operations are continuing at the main location in the Darnytskyi district and will continue throughout the night. There are people who have been out of contact since the Russian attack, so the number of confirmed deaths may rise. Four children are already known to have died, the youngest of whom was only two years old.

Rescue workers have completed their work at most locations. Volunteers are also helping.
