On Wednesday night, August 21, the Russian army hit the territory of the Bereznehuvate community in the Mykolaiv region with a ballistic missile.
This was reported by the head of Mykolaiv RMA Vitalii Kim.
The Iskander-M missile hit earlier at 11:05 p.m. A farm fire broke out on the spot as a result of the attack.
Also, two residential buildings caught fire — firefighters promptly extinguished the fire. Rescuers evacuated four people.
The last ballistic attack on Mykolaiv
The explosion in Mykolaiv occurred at 5:14 p.m. As it turned out, the blow hit a residential area of the city.
In addition to three houses, a kindergarten was also destroyed by the rocket attack.
An hour after the attack, Vice Mayor Vitalii Lukov said in a comment to NikVesti that three victims were known at the place of arrival, including a child. The mother of the boy who died as a result of a rocket attack is in a state of shock. Psychologists work with her.
