In Dnipro, rescue operations were completed at the site of a rocket attack on a high-rise building

The State Emergency Service has completed search and rescue operations in Dnipro at the site of a rocket attack on a high-rise building. 44 people were found under the rubble. 39 people were saved, including 6 children, 44 people died, including 5 children, and 79 people were injured, including 16 children. 44 lives were taken by a Russian missile that hit a high-rise building in Dnipro. Five children were among the dead. The youngest boy was not even a year old, – reported the head of the Regional Military Administration.

On January 14, Russian troops attacked a multi-story building on Naberezhnaya Peremogy in the Dnipro with an Kh-22 missile designed to destroy aircraft carrier groups at sea. The Kh-22 missile is supersonic, it has low accuracy when hitting ground targets. The Russian Federation used the same missile to attack a shopping center in Kremenchuk in the summer of 2022.

The missile with a warhead of 950 kilograms, called “carrier killer”, is designed to destroy aircraft carrier groups at sea, it can be equipped with a nuclear warhead. And with such a missile they hit a densely populated city where people… There is no explanation or justification for this terrorist act, – says Yuriy Ignat, the spokesman of the Air Force of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Ukraine still does not have the means to shoot down such missiles.

The number of victims of a Russian missile attack on a multi-story residential building in Dnipro will be more than 50 people.

This opinion was expressed by the chairman Borys Filatov.

According to him, the chances of finding anyone else under the rubble tend to zero, because the temperature was low at night and rocket fuel was burning after the impact.

“Approximately 20 people are considered missing, and to be honest, we are completely sifting through the garbage so that not a single fragment of the body disappears, but I was told that… there is such a possibility that some people simply “evaporated”, Filatov said.

The rescuers are still planning to examine the roof of the building, the mayor of Dnipro continued, because bodies could have been thrown there as a result of a rocket attack.

“Well, let’s do it. According to preliminary estimates, there will still be 50+ victims, that’s 100%,” Filatov emphasized.

Currently, 45 people are known to have died as a result of the Russian missile attack on the Dnipro, among them six children.

The search and rescue operation at the site of a Russian missile attack on a residential building in Dnipro was completed at 1:00 p.m., the State Emergency Service noted. It lasted 69 hours.

39 people, including six children, were rescued from the destroyed building. 79 people (16 of them – children) were injured, according to the State Emergency Service.

As of 1:30 p.m. on January 17, 20 people (including three children) are considered missing, the bodies of 15 dead have not been identified, the police informed.

As a result of a rocket attack on the Dnipro on January 14, part of a nine-story residential building was destroyed.

According to the information of the Ukrainian military, an Kh-22 anti-ship missile arrived in Dnipro, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine do not have weapons capable of shooting down missiles of this type. The weight of the warhead of such missiles is approximately 950 kg.

The Prosecutor General’s Office noted that these missiles are extremely inaccurate: they can deviate from the course by hundreds of meters. The same type of rockets were used by the occupiers in Serhiyivka, Odesa Region, and Kremenchuk, Poltava Region. According to the prosecutor’s office, they can be launched by a single Russian unit – the 52nd Guards Bomber Aviation Regiment.

As of January 17, the Russian occupiers killed 6 children in the Dnipro, another 16 were injured.

The rescue operation in Dnipro is officially completed, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine reported.

A total of 487 victims filed complaints with the police. Five children remained orphans. Relatives are taking care of three of them. Two children are currently under the care of the state, as they do not have relatives who can take care of them.

Little Mikita, together with his father Oleksiy, died under the rubble after the terrorist shelling of the Dnipro

A terrorist attack on a high-rise building in Dnipro led to the death of many people, including children. A little boy who was not even a year old died under the rubble. The grandfather showed a video with his grandson, who became a victim of “Russian peace”.

Little Mikita, together with his father Oleksiy, died under the rubble after the terrorist shelling of the Dnipro. The grief-stricken grandfather showed a video with his grandson at the scene of the tragedy, when the child was still being searched for. He stated:

Russia found “Bandera” in Ukraine in the Dnieper, which was buried under slabs and still has not been found… This child is still lying under the rubble… There is no forgiveness for them. I will curse them until the last days of my life.

Rescuers managed to pull Nikita’s mother, 27-year-old Kateryna Zelenska, from under the ruins. It is reported that she spent about 20 hours under the rubble, and is now in intensive care.

According to updated data, 45 people, including six children, died as a result of a Russian missile attack on a high-rise building in Dnipro. The search and rescue operation lasted 69 hours, and already at 13:00 on January 17, it was announced that it was over.

In 2023, the Russians killed more than a hundred peaceful Ukrainians. The real number of victims of Russian aggression may be much higher.

Half a year ago, the first large-scale shelling of Nikopol took place. More than 10 apartment buildings were damaged then. Even today, the occupiers do not leave Nikopolshchyna alone even for a day.

For 6 months, they cynically raid peaceful towns and villages, destroy residential buildings and infrastructure, and kill people. Despite all attempts, the occupiers are unable to intimidate the people of Nikopol and sow panic. The city lives and works in defiance of the enemy.
