All fires in Kyiv have been extinguished following the Russian shelling

In the capital, rescue workers have fully extinguished the fires at all locations where blazes broke out as a result of yet another Russian attack. 

This was reported by the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.

As of now, the deaths of four city residents have been confirmed, including one child.

The number of civilian casualties has now risen to 49 people. State Emergency Service specialists have finished extinguishing the fires, but work at the sites of the strikes continues in full force. 

The agency’s psychologists have already provided emergency assistance to about 30 citizens who were in a state of severe stress.

The State Emergency Service continues large-scale emergency rescue operations. 

Efforts are focused on two locations where debris is being cleared and damaged building structures dismantled. This is necessary to conduct a final inspection of the areas and eliminate the risk of further collapses.

The city has deployed significant resources to address the aftermath of the enemy strike. 

“Rescuers from the State Emergency Service continue emergency rescue operations: clearing debris and structures at two locations,” the agency’s press service reports. 

More than 300 personnel have been deployed to the site.
