On Thursday, May 15, a Day of Mourning was declared in Kyiv for those killed in one of the largest Russian airstrikes. In the capital, the cleanup of debris at the site where a residential building was hit in the Darnytskyi district was also completed. The search and rescue operation following the strike, which occurred on the night of May 14, lasted more than 24 hours.
