“Russia is exterminating entire families of Ukrainians”

The enemy attack on Lviv by Russians last night claimed the lives of seven people. In one family, only the father survived - his wife and three daughters were killed.

RBC-Ukraine tells what is known about the injured and dead in Lviv.

According to the official information of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine, as of 11:25 a.m. on September 4, the number of people injured in the morning attack on Lviv was 47.

“As of now, rescuers have rescued 12 people. Unfortunately, 7 people died, including children,” the press service of the department added on Facebook.

It is specified that psychologists from the Lviv Oblast State Emergency Service are working at the scene and have provided assistance to 82 victims (including 11 children).

More than 140 rescuers and 33 units of special equipment were involved in the aftermath of the incident. The work is ongoing.

The head of the Lviv Regional Military Administration, Maksym Kozytskyi, confirmed that the search for victims is ongoing and explained that the biggest difficulty is that one of the locations has a large depth of rubble in a very limited area.

“There may still be people under it. Fire and rescue units are doing their best to dismantle the ruins as quickly and carefully as possible,” the official emphasized.

Lviv Mayor Andriy Sadovyi posted a photo of a family on his social media and emphasized: “As a result of today's attack, only the man in this photo is still alive out of the whole family.”

“Yevhen's wife and their three daughters - Yaryna, Daryna and Emilia - were killed in their own home,” he said.

Sadovyi noted that “Yaryna Bazylevych, who was 21 years old, is standing behind them.

“She worked in our office of Lviv - European Youth Capital 2025. In the center of Europe, Russia is killing Ukrainians with whole families. the Russians are killing our children, our future. I don't know what words to use to support Yaroslav's father. Today we are all with you. My sincere condolences and blessed memory,” the mayor summarized.
