Several people were saved. At least one man was pulled alive from the rubble. The rescuers' video shows that the man was obviously drunk. OVA suggests that he was in the basement when he was hit.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed his condolences to the relatives and friends of the victims.

"We need more air defense from our partners. It is necessary to strengthen the Ukrainian air shield to add protection to our people from Russian terror. More air defense systems, more missiles for air defense is what saves lives," the president said.
