According to Borzov: "There are losses among both the military and civilians. The debris has not been cleared away yet, so we cannot yet confirm the number of people who were killed.

Both military and civilian parts of the airport were damaged. Fuel tanks caught on fire, but they [the Russian troops] did not manage to blow everything up. Thanks to the coordinated actions of the State Emergency Service the fire was contained and extinguished."

Details: The head of the Vinnytsya City Council Serhiy Morgunov said that six employees of the Vinnytsya Airport utility company are under the rubble and their condition is currently unknown.
