As a result of a missile attack on the central bus station of Dnipro, some bodies of the strike victims were defragmented, which complicates their identification.

That’s according to Dnipro Mayor Borys Filatov, who reported the news on Telegram, Ukrinform saw.

"Rescuers, police, and utility workers are working at the scene, where journalists are also present. Of course, I didn’t sleep half of this night. Of course, there are things that should not even be discussed. For example, the fact that some bodies were defragmented due to the impact of missiles, so identifying them is a tough task," the posting reads.
