Unfortunately, there is a victim. Two men are also in hospital with severe burns incompatible with life, so in fact, three people died.
Two of them are Belarusians who stopped here while moving by car, they asked to stay for the time being while leaving. They did not know that Russian planes would take off from Belarusian airfields and bomb the city of Korosten.
The bombs also hit Poliakova Street, not far from here, and 58 Kemskoho Street, where electricity centre is located."

In addition, an agreement was signed on 9 March between Korosten and the French city of Bourges, which will provide the necessary assistance and receive women and children of Korosten.
