In Rubezhnoye, as a result of a HIMARS multiple rocket launcher (MLRS) missile strike, two entrances were almost completely destroyed. Izvestia correspondent Yegor Kildibekov visited the site of the explosion and showed the consequences on Friday, April 7.
“As usual, it “banged” – we are already used to it, we are not afraid of anything. But it’s a shame, of course. We got up in the morning, and two people died there,” a local resident said.
The rocket explosion shattered the windows, some of the balconies had partitions broken.
