  "account": "Interior Minister Ivan Vyhivsky has reported ongoing emergency rescue operations and firefighting efforts following a recent Russian attack on Kyiv and the surrounding regions. On September 30, Russian missiles and drones targeted 10 regions and the capital city, causing significant damage to residential buildings, a shopping and entertainment center, administrative buildings, energy facilities, and outbuildings.\n\nIn the village of Vyshhorod, located in the Kyiv region, a Russian missile strike tragically resulted in the death of a child. The Minister of Internal Affairs expressed condolences to the family and friends of the victim.\n\nOn Wednesday morning, the Russian occupiers launched an assault on a supermarket located in a suburb of Kyiv. The fire at the supermarket had already been extinguished by the time Vyhivsky issued his report. The Interior Minister also confirmed that during the morning shelling, one person was killed and another person, a rescuer named Volodymyr Skovorodka, was injured. Skovorodka is a well-known athlete who previously set a record for Ukraine. He is now helping victims of the attack, having come under secondary shelling while providing assistance.\n\nThe Minister informed that necessary units are actively working at the various shelling sites, with police officers documenting another war crime and accepting statements regarding damaged or destroyed property. Despite the ongoing attacks, Vyhivsky urged citizens to remain in safe places during air raid alerts and the threat of shelling, emphasizing that Russians continue to target Ukrainian cities.",
