Details: Taras noted that, luckily, he and his family are alive.

Quote: "Today, a Russian ballistic missile destroyed the apartment my beloved and I shared. Everything is smashed inside. The blast wave bent and ripped the armoured door from its hinges. Only the walls remain and even they are partially destroyed. We were lucky; everyone in the family is alive. That’s how it turned out – the Creator protected us. Thank you..." 

This is what Topolia’s apartment looks like after the Russian attack.

"Unlike the people in the building opposite, which suffered a direct hit. There are casualties there. Eternal rest to all who did not survive that night. A hellish lottery... I will provide comments in a few days. Ukraine will prevail!"

Taras noted that he, his wife and their children were not injured. He did not provide further details.

Details: Olena Topolia, Taras's wife, posted a video on Instagram in which she tries to say something, with a destroyed building and a fire behind her.
