Due to another air-raid warning, rescue workers were forced to withdraw to a safe distance. During this time, Russian forces carried out another strike on the same location, setting two more lorries and a minibus on fire.

"Despite the danger, firefighters extinguished all the fires. A total of 42 firefighters and nine pieces of equipment were involved, along with six members of local fire brigades," the SES said.
