An Indian citizen was among those killed in Russia’s attack on Ukraine overnight on September 1.
Ukrinform reports this, citing a Facebook post by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky.
Efforts to deal with the aftermath of the Russian attack have been underway in many cities and communities since the overnight hours, with nearly 350 rescuers deployed in Kyiv and the surrounding region alone, the post says.
“A significant number of jet-powered UAVs and ballistic missiles were launched in the attack. Unfortunately, residential and civilian infrastructure was damaged. In Boryspil, an ordinary five-story apartment building was damaged. Fifty people were evacuated. The relevant emergency services are on the scene. Businesses were also hit. Overall, four people were killed and 13 injured in the city. My condolences,” Zelensky said.
The president noted that attacks involving guided aerial bombs and drones continued in Odesa and the surrounding region from the evening. Thousands of households were left without electricity, and efforts are underway to restore power to residents as quickly as possible.
