It is noted that the rescuers and other services work tirelessly. They are making every effort around the clock to eliminate the consequences of this tragedy as soon as possible.
As reported, at about 08:45 on March 29 in Mykolayiv, a Russian missile hit nine-story premises housing the Mykolayiv Regional State Administration and the Mykolayiv Regional Council. The central section from the 9th to the 1st floor was destroyed.
On February 24, Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Since then, Russian troops have repeatedly violated the laws and customs of war by shelling civilians, including with prohibited weapons, and using civilians as "human shields."
