"Residents of the small town of Vyshneve, on Kyiv's western edge, have described scenes of terror amid Russia's latest devastating missile and drone attack on the capital, as they found themselves fleeing a series of massive explosions after a strike on the town."A huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky. Burning fragments kept flying behind us. They were so high, but it felt like everything was on fire," Diana Liashchuk, 21, told the Kyiv Independent.
"I called my mom just to tell her not to worry, that I was alive. Then another huge explosion happened. I was terrified she would hear me die over the phone."
According to Ukraine's State Emergency Service, seven people were killed and 29 were injured in the town as a result of the Russian attack, which damaged a warehouse and set off secondary explosions.
Liashchuk was in her apartment during the initial strike and was blown over by the shockwave. She then joined dozens of others fleeing the secondary explosions, running through fields and a cemetery on the outskirts of Vyshneve in the darkness around 4 a.m. as debris continued to fall around them."
