Yesterday, on November 23, during an air raid alert on the territory of the Lviv region, the Russian forces fired 5 rockets on the territory of the Lviv region.

“Of the 70 missiles that were fired at Ukraine, 5 missiles were fired at the territory of the Lviv region. 2 of them hit critical infrastructure, and the rest were shot down by the Air Defense Forces,” Kozytskyi said. 

According to him, two missiles hit one electrical substation, which was completely destroyed.  Prior to that, it had already been damaged during previous mass missile attacks by the occupying Russian forces.
