A massive crater in front of a building: Kyiv Rescue Service responders are working at the site of a Russian ballistic missile strike

A Russian missile that struck near a residential building in the capital’s Solomianskyi district partially destroyed the facade of a five-story apartment block.

The incident occurred overnight into November 7. A massive crater lies next to the residential building, and a ground-floor apartment sustained severe damage. This is what the aftermath of the attack looked like in the morning.

Operational units from the 4th and 1st emergency rescue platoons used specialized equipment to clear the area for the installation of foundation blocks.

Following this, responders from the Kyiv Rescue Service reinforced the ground floor of the building by installing six foundation blocks, six wooden supports, and two metal supports—each five meters long.

Eleven rescuers from the Kyiv Rescue Service participated in the operation, utilizing two pieces of specialized equipment.
