Missile strike
editThe missile strike left half of the building destroyed,[7] leaving a massive hole inside the building's structure and triggering numerous fires. The governor's office was destroyed.[8]
As a result of the attack,[9][10] 37 people were killed[11] and 34 were injured.[12]
Governor of Mykolaiv Oblast Vitaliy Kim overslept that night, preventing him from going to work and saving his life.[13] Initially, the governor said that eight people were still trapped under the rubble and three soldiers remained missing.[7]
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed reports about the missile strike shortly later in a video to the Danish Folketing.[14]
