The dog was approximately 10 years old, so it was hard for it to cope with the injuries it suffered and the post-traumatic stress.

"This video shows the dog yesterday, on 11 September. Today he is not with us anymore. We are really sorry we were not able to save his life.

UAnimals expresses its condolences to the dog’s owner and to everyone who has lost their pets as a result of the Russian aggression," the activists said.

Background: On 8 September, a Russian missile struck a residential area in the city of Sumy.

Rescue workers saved two elderly people and a dog from under the rubble. A 65-year old woman later died in hospital.
