On Monday, Ukrainian authorities denounced the impact in Lviv (west) of five missiles fired by Russia, without any reports of casualties, in the context of the war unleashed on February 24 by the invasion order issued by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“Five missiles hit Lviv,” said the city's mayor, Andrey Sadovy, through his Telegram account. “The relevant services have left for the place. We are looking for new information”, he highlighted in his message.
In addition, the head of the Lviv Regional Military Administration, Maksim Kozitski, has confirmed four impacts, without giving any further details, while calling on the population to remain in the shelters in the face of possible further bombings.
The city of Lviv, located near the Polish border, has so far remained virtually untouched by the conflict, with a single attack on the surrounding area since the outbreak of the war. At the moment it is not known what the objectives have been achieved.
On the other hand, the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, Valentin Reznichenko, assured that Russian forces had bombed the area, although he clarified that “60% of the missiles were shot down by air defense”.
“The night was relatively calm, but during the morning the invaders fired missiles into the area,” he said on Telegram. “We are not easy prey,” said Reznichenko.
Ukrainian authorities have also confirmed that six people were injured in Sunday's attack on a police building in the city of Lisichansk, located in the part of the Lugansk region (east) outside the control of the self-proclaimed Lugansk People's Republic, as reported by the news agency Ukrinform.
On the other hand, thousands of civilians from the besieged city of Mariupol, on the coast of the Azov Sea, are resisting the continuous bombing of Russian refugee troops at the Azovstal steel mill, a former metallurgical plant created in the 1930s.
“Civilians, including women and children, are taking refuge in the premises of the Azovstal plant,” Mariupol Police Chief Mykhailo Vershynin said Monday in statements made on a local television program, according to the agency Ukrinform.
Vershynin made these comments while talking on the program with former Ukrainian Interior Minister Arsen Avakov about the situation in that city, which has been besieged by Russian troops for weeks.
According to Avakov, “there are many people in the bunkers of Azovstal: women, the elderly, children. All of them (live) in terrible conditions, without medicine, food, or water.”
