Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the situation in Borodianka, a Kyiv suburb, was "much scarier" than in Bucha in his latest Facebook address to the nation late on Thursday.

Ukrinform reported that Borodianka was the most destroyed city in the Kyiv region, hit by uncontrolled 250-kilogram high-explosive bombs.

The first hundred rescue volunteers will start restoration work in Borodyanka on Friday together with security emergency officers, according to Ukrinform.
