This was reported by the mayor of the city, Serhiy Nadala.

According to the city mayor, 12-year-old Adriana Unolt died in Ternopil, after fighting for her life for nine days after a rocket attack on the city.

The girl's mother was killed during the shelling, and her sister is still in the hospital.

Now Adriana is where there is no fear and explosions — next to her mother, in a quiet and bright place, inaccessible to war.

He also recalled that nine days ago, missiles hit two residential buildings in Ternopil.

Today, the pain of this tragedy returns again — another child's life has been taken by war.

Thus, the number of people killed in the shelling has increased to 35 people.

The head of the Main Directorate of the National Police of Ternopil region, Serhiy Zyubanenko, reported on his Facebook page that 93 people, including 17 children, were injured in the Russian attack in the city. Six people are still missing:

Fragments of bodies were found among the wreckage, their identities must be established by an expert examination. Our investigators, forensic experts and dog handlers continue to search for the missing among hundreds of tons of destroyed structures and destroyed cars. Work continues at the site where the wreckage from Stusa and 15 Krivtnia streets was taken.

As a reminder, on the morning of November 19, at around 7:00 a.m., the Russian occupiers attacked the city with missiles and drones. As a result of a direct hit by an Kh-101 missile, a large-scale destruction of a high-rise building occurred — a collapse from the 9th to the 3rd floor. A fire broke out in another apartment building.
