Quote from Fedoruk: "A missile attack on the Bucha hromada (a hromada is an administrative unit designating a town, village or several villages and their adjacent territories – ed.): the blast wave left houses in Babyntsi and Vorzel settlements without roofs and windows. Some of the buildings have their supporting structures damaged. In total, about four dozen houses were damaged. An enemy missile was shot down outside the settlement, so a crater was the only consequence. Relevant services are working there."
