The fragments of a rocket shot down over a hypermarket fell on its huge roof, which led to a very strong fire, which was extinguished for several hours. If the missile had not been shot down in the air, it would still have hit FOZZY, the scale of destruction around the hypermarket would have been much greater. The houses around still lost their windows, but that was all. Three employees of the hypermarket were injured - there were no fatalities. In the morning, the management of the FOZZY chain regrets to announce that the hypermarket will not be restored until the end of the war. In one night, 270 employees are left without work. more
