More than 30 people were injured at this location. Rescuers managed to save 28 people from the destroyed house. Psychologists from the State Emergency Service and the police are working, communicating with the victims and supporting the relatives of the deceased and those who are still being searched for.
Police reporting points have also been deployed — investigators have so far registered over 100 complaints from people about property damage. Nearby are mobile points of the Main Service Center and the Migration Service.
If a vehicle is destroyed or damaged beyond repair as a result of a Russian strike, it must be removed from the state register (i.e., it must be scrapped). For this purpose, mobile service centers are operating at the sites of impact relief. The service is free and provided immediately upon request.
In addition, the minister added, at the mobile points of the State Center and the Migration Service, it is possible to quickly restore destroyed documents: ID card, driver's license, vehicle registration certificate.
According to him, more than 20 people have already received services and consultations on document restoration and vehicle scrapping.
Also, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs emphasized, many were injured as a result of the morning Russian strike on Kharkiv — 28 victims have already been recorded.
The threat of Russian strikes may persist, so monitor official announcements and stay in shelters during airstrikes.
