Russian strike hits Khmelnytskyi Oblast: homes and gas facility damaged, two injured
Two people were injured in Khmelnytskyi Oblast, and a gas distribution point was damaged in the mass Russian combined attack overnight, local governor Serhii Tiurin reported on April 24.
One man sustained a minor leg injury and was hospitalized. A teenager girl suffered a glass cut on her leg but did not require hospitalization. No fatalities have been reported.
The strike also caused a fire, which was quickly extinguished by emergency services.
The attack damaged the gas facility (without disrupting supply), roofs of two houses, windows and doors in five apartments of a multi-story building, and part of a park’s summer pavilion.
Emergency services are working on clearing the debris, local authorities are providing information on compensation for damaged property.
The strike was part of a nationwide Russian air attack that triggered air raid alerts in all oblasts due to the launch of Tu-95MS bombers, Kalibr missiles, and Shahed drones.
8 people were killed and 77 injured in Kyiv (as of 11 a.m. EET). Two children are missing under the rubble in the Sviatoshynskyi district.
In Kharkiv, missiles and drones caused damage in at least two areas, with two more people injured.
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.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
