The mayor of the city, Alexander Senkevich, has announced this Thursday that Mikolaev has been attacked “massively” by Russian troops, without specifying a balance of victims at the moment. “After the first night, they have massively bombed Mikolaev. A five-story residential building has been attacked,” Senkevich explained in a message on his official Telegram profile, after he had given notice at midnight of the air alarms for citizens to take refuge. “The two upper floors have completely destroyed; the rest, under the rubble”, the mayor has detailed. The emergency services are at the site of the bombings to proceed with the rescue work, as explained by Senkevich. In recent days, Russia has taken a change of strategy in the war in Ukraine, so that it is focusing attacks on civilian areas and infrastructure. Moscow has taken this measure in retaliation for an explosion on Saturday that damaged the strategic Kerch Bridge, which links Russia and the annexed Crimean peninsula. no casualties, Major Alexander Senkevich reportsWith strikes against the civilian population, Putin’s amiya is signing his own death sentence/1 pic.twitter.com/reIrlpMa0l— Lew Anno Yieretz Israel (@anno1540) October 1, 2022
