For nearly ten hours, the Ukrainian Red Cross Society (URCS) worked tirelessly in Mykolaiv to mitigate the aftermath of Russian air strikes on a shopping center. The rapid response team collaborated with other city rescue services, conducting searches, administering first aid, supplying water to rescuers, and providing operational support.

The State Emergency Service of Ukraine confirmed Russian attacks on September 4 and into September 5, causing damage to shopping halls and igniting fires. Two individuals sustained injuries. Due to persistent threats, the URCS volunteers operated cautiously, retreating to safety before returning to address the damage. Epicentr reported their hypermarket in Mykolaiv was destroyed by multiple Russian strikes.

These efforts saved equipment and enabled the concealment of survivors. Despite six targeted strikes in a single day, the company insisted their shopping center was nearly saved.
