There were no military, police, or critical infrastructure facilities at the site of yesterday's Russian ballistic missile strike on Kryvyi Rih.
This was reported by Oleksandr Vilkul, the head of the Kryvyi Rih Defense Council, on the KIEV24 TV channel, Censor.NET reports.
He reminded that the missile strike killed 18 people, including 9 children, and another person was the victim of a drone attack on the city at night.
As of now, 19 of the injured are in serious and extremely serious condition. Two wounded children were transported to Dnipro.
Vilkul noted that Russia hit a residential area of Kryvyi Rih with an Iskander ballistic missile with a cluster warhead.
"18 people were killed in a missile attack. It was an Iskander cluster missile, which is detonated in the air to kill as many people as possible," he said.
He also added that there was a lot of damage in the city, particularly among residential buildings. There will be three days of mourning for the victims of the attack. There are no excuses for the Russians, he added.
"There is a playground behind me. Where are the military facilities here? A NATO base, probably. No military, no police, and no critical infrastructure facilities (not nearby - Ed.). It is clearly the center of residential infrastructure," Vilkul said.
