As of now, 2 people are known to have been killed by yesterday's shelling by the occupiers’ forces."

On the night of 25 July, the Russians conducted missile attacks on civilian targets in the hromada [amalgamated territorial community], including the cultural centre.
The basement of the premises served as a shelter, because the Chuhuiv area has been under constant shelling by the occupiers for several weeks.
On Monday, 4 people were rescued from the rubble.
