A search-and-rescue operation is underway in Lviv on July 30 at the site of a Russian missile strike. According to Mayor Andriy Sadovyi, two people are still missing. Rescuers also managed to evacuate an elderly man who uses a wheelchair from the damaged building.
“As of now, two people are considered missing. There are 34 known casualties,” Sadovyi wrote on Telegram on Thursday.
According to him, mobile administrative service centers have also been set up near the site of the strike to assist residents of the damaged building. “Applications will be accepted today until 7:00 p.m. so that residents can quickly complete the necessary paperwork and file claims,” Sadovyi wrote.
As previously reported, a Russian missile strike on Paton and Vyhovsky Streets in Lviv damaged 21 buildings, a kindergarten, and a school. An unexploded missile warhead was found on Vyhovsky Street and has already been defused. A total of 23 victims sought medical assistance; 13 remain in the hospital. One person is in critical condition.
