In Mykolaiv, rescuers retrieved the body of the last victim from under the rubble of a residential building hit by a Russian rocket on October 13. The total number of victims reached eight.

This was reported by the mayor Oleksandr Senkievych.

“Rescuers completed the search operation... In total, the bodies of six dead people were unblocked from under the rubble of the building. Thus, as a result of the Russian attack on October 13, eight residents of Mykolaiv were killed: seven residents of the building and one rescuer who died at the shuttle station while on duty,” he wrote.

The day before, it became known that an 11-year-old boy, who was pulled alive from under the rubble, died in the hospital from cardiac arrest. In total, four high-rise buildings were damaged by shelling. In one of them, where the rocket hit, there are two emergency entrances.

  • On the night of October 13, Russian troops bombarded Mykolaiv with eight S-300 missiles. They aimed at a five-story residential building and a boat station. The two upper floors of the building were completely destroyed, and the entire station was destroyed.
