Search-and-rescue operations are continuing at the business center. Rescuers led 47 people out of the burning building. People on the upper floors are being evacuated using an aerial ladder truck.

The attack started a fire.

Hanzha posted a video of the aftermath showing significant destruction of the multistory building.

Lukashuk said that several people were not responding to attempts to contact them after the Russian attack.

"The enemy attacked Dnipro. Struck the city center in the middle of the workday, where there are many people. There are injured," Lukashuk wrote.
