Tymur Tkachenko, head of the local regional military
administration, said that at least 50 residential buildings had
been damaged in the attack, which also sparked a large-scale
fire that spread to homes and a restaurant.
In a statement, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said
that a warehouse had been struck in the village of Myla
“followed by a detonation.”
He did not give details on the site, but wrote in the same
message that criminal proceedings had been opened on charges of
official negligence.
“There are regulations in place – ammunition cannot be stored
near homes or other residential areas,” Zelenskyy said.
The Ukrainian leader wrote that a care home for elderly people
and people with disabilities and residential buildings were
damaged.
“More than 370 people have already been evacuated, and the
evacuation is ongoing,” he said.
Almost constant air raids in Kyiv have now reached their third
day, choking the economy in the Ukrainian capital and severely
disrupting civilian life more than 4˝ years after Russia’s
full-scale invasion of its neighbor.
