A mother, her one-and-a-half-year-old son, and her six-year-old daughter were killed in Ternopil as a result of Russian shelling.

This was reported by the State Emergency Service of Ukraine on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

“Another family whose lives were taken by Russia... The man waited for three days near the ruins of his house in Ternopil, hoping that rescuers would find his wife and two children. Unfortunately, there was no miracle: the woman, her one-and-a-half-year-old son, and her six-year-old daughter were killed. A Russian missile killed them,” the post says.

It is noted that psychologists from the State Emergency Service are working at the search and rescue site. Currently, 388 people have sought their help.

As reported, rescuers in Ternopil removed the bodies of three victims from under the rubble.

The death toll from Russian shelling has increased to 31, including six children. A total of 94 people were injured, including 18 children.

Ten people, including one child, are still missing.

The Russians attacked Ternopil with combat drones and missiles on the morning of November 19. Two residential high-rise buildings were hit in the city.
