A Russian missile strike killed at least four people in Lviv in the biggest attack on the western Ukrainian city's civilian infrastructure since Russia's full-scale invasion, Ukrainian officials said
A general view of damaged buildings following a Russian rocket strike that hit an apartment building, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, in Lviv, Ukraine in this screen grab obtained from a handout video released on July 6, 2023.
"They, Russians, Rashists, say that they are bombing military objects but they hit a peaceful house. People were sleeping. How could they do it?," said Lviv resident Vira Luben, a woman in her seventies, using a derogatory term for Russians. Ukraine's air force said Russia had attacked Lviv with Kalibr missiles launched from the Black Sea. It said seven out of 10 missiles were shot down.
Sadovyi said that 35 residential houses, an office complex, a student campus, a school, and 50 cars were damaged. He said windows in hundreds of apartments were smashed and the city would provide 100 million hryvnias for repairs.
