Death toll in partially collapsed apartment building in Belgorod climbs to 15 VIDEO

The death toll in the partial collapse of a 10-storey residential apartment building in Russia’s southwestern city of Belgorod following a Ukrainian attack on May 12 has risen to 15, the Russian Emergencies Ministry said in a statement on its Telegram channel.

"Rescuers found another body. In all, 15 bodies have been already recovered from the rubble," the statement reads, TASS reports.

Belgorod and its suburbs came under massive shelling by the Ukrainian armed forces earlier on May 12. Fragments of a downed Tochka-U tactical missile damaged a 10-storey residential building, causing one of its sections to collapse.
