It is clear that people were completely unprepared for such an attack, they were at their workplaces and minding their own business, Serhiy Bolvinov, the head of the Investigative Department of the National Security Service in the Kharkiv region, said.
He noted that the bodies of seven victims, who relatives and colleagues are seeking, have not yet been found. They are considered missing. Just like those people whose remains have already been found, but work is still going on with the DNA.
Importantly! I appeal to everyone who is currently looking for their loved ones. Submitting DNA samples is currently the only way to identify those who have been found and will be found at the scene of the crash. Report the disappearance of people who may have been in the Epicenter, Bolvinov stressed.
