In the Desnyan district of Kyiv, on Malyshka Street, on the night of June 22, an explosion occurred in a 16-story residential building, probably due to a gas leak. Three people died as a result. One of the residents of the building, Dmytro Rozdorozhny, told “UP.Zhyttia” the details of the tragedy. Dmytro Rozdorozhny and his wife Tetyana live on the first floor of the affected high-rise on the other side of the place where the explosion occurred. The man said that they woke up to a powerful explosion and at first thought that an enemy missile had hit the house.

I looked at the alarm that we ran out and secured the apartment 2 minutes after the explosion,” the man said. According to him, he started calling 101, but was told that the rescue service had already left. Rozdorozhny also claims that he saw a man who lives on one of the upper floors jump out of the window of a smoky apartment. At the same time, the police and the State Emergency Service denied this information in a comment to “UP. Life”.

Help, there’s a fire.” And about 2 minutes before that, the house began to be extinguished, the rescuers gave water, but the person jumped out,” said Dmytro Rozdorozhny. In a comment to “UP. Life”, Kyiv police spokeswoman Yulia Girdvilis denied this information. This information was also not confirmed in the main office of the State Emergency Service. “During the arrival of the rescue units, there were no such cases, no one fell out of nowhere,” the State Emergency Service noted. We will remind, as a result of an explosion in a residential high-rise building on Malyshka Street in Kyiv, 3 people died and 6 apartments were destroyed. At least 18 people were rescued.

Earlier, we reported that a couple of immigrants from Bakhmut died in Odesa after a nighttime Russian shelling due to the fall of the fragments of a drone on a high-rise building.
