Russia has launched another missile attack on the city of Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi in the Odessa region, damaging one of the local schools
It is known that enemy ballistic missiles were launched on the afternoon of June 23, and the effects of the shelling hit the educational institution, destroying part of it. According to the head of the Odessa regional military administration, Oleg Kiper, people may remain under the rubble - adult teachers and employees of the institution, who are still being searched and rescued. According to the Ukrainian Air Force, two ballistic missiles were probably launched, the flight speed and speed of which were recorded by the air defense services even before the strike. Warning signals about the presence of high-speed targets in the Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi area were heard after 14:30, which indicates a quick response of the military to the threat. Fortunately, there were no students at the school at the time of the shelling, as they were already on summer vacation. However, a destroyed school is not only a loss of infrastructure, but also a potential threat to human lives, as teachers and employees of the institution who were inside the building during the attack may be buried under the rubble. Rescue services have already begun search and rescue operations, and local units of the State Emergency Service, law enforcement officers, and volunteers are working on the site around the clock. The authorities are urging residents to be careful and follow safety recommendations, as the risk of repeated shelling remains high. Such a strike by the Russian occupiers once again emphasizes the aggravation of the situation in the region and the need to strengthen defensive measures. Local authorities are urging residents to be vigilant and mobilized, reporting any damage or suspicious objects they find. Shelling of civilian infrastructure continues to cause concern and is a reminder of the difficult situation during the war, which has been going on for over a year. Overall, the situation remains tense, and all services are ready to deal with the consequences of the shelling and assist the victims. The authorities emphasize that the fight for the security of the region continues, and call on citizens to remain cautious and strictly follow instructions.
