Death toll climbs: Kryvyi Rih attack claims five lives, another victim recovered
In Kryvyi Rih, the death toll from a Russian attack on residential high-rise buildings on March 12 has risen to five, the head of the city’s Defense Council, Oleksandr Vilkul, reported on Telegram on March 13.
“Unfortunately, this is the fifth person killed in yesterday’s missile attack,” he said.
According to him, the deceased man was found while clearing the rubble on one of the floors.
On March 12, the Russian occupiers fired guided missiles - presumably X-59 - at Kryvyi Rih, hitting two residential buildings.
In the evening of March 12, a search operation was completed in Kryvyi Rih, and nine people were rescued.
44 people were injured, including ten children. The youngest victims are a two-month-old boy and an 11-month-old girl.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
