According to authorities, at least six people were killed in a Russian attack in the city of Krivói Rog, located in central Ukraine. The attack consisted of a missile strike on a residential building. Oleksandr Vilkul, head of the municipal administration of this industrial town and hometown of President Volodymyr Zelensky, reported via Telegram about this tragic situation.
In a previous report issued earlier on Tuesday, Vilkul mentioned three fatalities, 25 injured, and seven people possibly trapped under the rubble. However, in the updated toll, the death toll was unfortunately confirmed to have risen to six.
The attack hit an apartment building, causing significant devastation and a large number of casualties. The city of Krivói Rog, known as an important industrial center, was affected by this escalation of violence, which has left a trail of destruction and loss of life.
These events are part of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which has generated an increase in violence and had devastating consequences for the civilian population. The situation remains in constant evolution, and Ukrainian authorities are working to provide support to the victims and mitigate the effects of these attacks.
This tragic incident is another reminder of the grave situation facing Ukraine and the need to seek a peaceful and lasting solution to the conflict. The international community continues to urge an immediate cessation of hostilities and the pursuit of diplomatic avenues to resolve the differences between the parties involved.
