Police Bodycam Shows Moments Before Deadly Russian Strike in Ukraine
Bodycam footage released by Ukraine’s National Police captures the moments before a Russian strike on a site being used both as an underground shelter and an aid distribution point. As Russian bombs approached, people can be seen rushing underground in an effort to reach safety. The footage conveys the confusion and urgency immediately before the attack, while also showing how the location served civilians seeking protection and assistance.
The strike took place on November 2 and killed at least 40 people. Dozens of others remain missing, leaving the final death toll uncertain. The attack has therefore affected not only those sheltering at the site, but also families still waiting for information about relatives who were there. The police release documents the brief period before the impact, placing the human consequences of the attack in the context of an emergency facility where people had gathered for protection and aid.
