At least eight people, including two children, were wounded after Russian forces launched an aerial bombardment on the eastern Ukrainian city of Sloviansk on Wednesday, according to the regional governor.
The attack saw nine aerial bombs strike the city, with one of the bombs hitting a residential building, causing extensive damage. Emergency crews worked throughout the night to clear rubble and search for survivors, as smoke continued to rise from the destroyed structure.
The rescuers can be seen using flashlights and cutting through debris, while residents sifted through the wreckage of their homes, trying to salvage belongings.
A 61-year-old woman was seen showing the injuries she sustained to her face, explaining that she was struck by glass shards when the blast blew out windows and doors.
A 64-year-old resident described the devastation as losing his home for the second time in his life. He compared the destruction to the 1988 Armenia earthquake, which had forced him to flee his country.
