A Russian ballistic missile completely destroyed the home of the Voronov family, a large family, in the village of Radushne near Kryvyi Rih. The parents and at least three children were killed.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced this.

The house was home to the parents, Olena and Artem, and their seven children: Mark, Dominika, Zakhar, Azariy, Eliy, Federica, Emilia, and Viorika, as well as their one-and-a-half-year-old grandson Artem, the child of their eldest son, who is currently defending Ukraine.

The blast was so powerful that almost nothing remained of the house. As of now, it is confirmed that the parents and three children – Mark, Azariy Ilay, and Emilia – have died. The fate of the other five children – Zachariah, Dominika, Viorika, Federica, and their grandson Artem – is still unknown (body parts have been recovered from the rubble; forensic experts will determine to whom they belong).

July 31 has been declared a day of mourning for the victims in Kryvyi Rih.

Zelenskyy emphasized that such crimes can only be stopped through the joint efforts of the international community. He stressed the need for missiles for the Patriot systems and ballistic missile interceptors.

We’re talking specifically about these families, about these very people, who can survive if we have the means to shoot down Russian missiles – if our partners help with the interceptors. Families who could perish if there’s nothing to stop the Russian “Iskanders”

President of Ukraine

As a reminder: on the night of July 29–30, in the village of Radushne in the Novopil community near Kryvyi Rih, a private home belonging to the Voronov family, a family with many children, was completely destroyed by a direct hit from a ballistic missile.
