In Dnipro, a residential neighborhood turned into the "epicenter of Armageddon" after a Russian missile strike, reports the National Police of Ukraine.
Police released footage showing the first moments after the Russian strike. The video shows officers evacuating residents with limited mobility and providing assistance. Buildings around them were damaged, and fires were burning.
"The enemy will again claim it does not target civilian homes. But the truth must be seen by the world. In seconds, a residential neighborhood becomes the epicenter of Armageddon: shocked residents, screams, tears, and burning homes," the National Police said.
