According to him, it happened on March 28. The man lived in the 20th house on Vasily Pershin Street. Together with his neighbors, he hid from the fights in the basement.
“In the morning, I hear knocking on the door. A soldier came out in front of me and said to me: ‘You have 15 minutes, get out now,’ remembers the agency’s interlocutor.
As a result, 12 people rushed into a small basement in the neighborhood and after 10 minutes there was an explosion. “The middle (the skyscrapers) collapsed,” says Stupnikov.
On the same day, the Ukrainian Armed Forces blew up several other high-rise buildings.
