He confirmed that two fatalities occurred in the Brovary area, where a dormitory, production facilities, and storage buildings sustained damage.
In addition to the casualties, the Brovary city mayor, Ihor Sapozhko, indicated that all injured individuals were promptly transported to a local hospital for treatment.
