In Yagotyn, Kyiv region, rescuers have been fighting fires at the Roshen confectionery company's warehouses for the fifth day. The premises were attacked by Russian drones on the night of February 7.
This was reported by the State Emergency Service of Kyiv Region on February 11.
There are many destroyed metal elements at the site, which complicates the work. They have to be cut and stretched with heavy engineering equipment to see and reach hidden fire centers.
