She said that the damage was caused after the shock wave from the Russian missiles detonated nearby.

On 19th August 2023, Russian military forces launched an Iskander-M ballistic missile at the Taras Shevchenko Theatre in downtown Chernihiv, Ukraine.

The Governor of Chernihiv Oblast, Vyacheslav Chaus, announced that seven people died, including a 6-year-old girl. Another 144 were injured, including 15 children and 15 police officers. With 41 injuries being grievous and requiring medical evacuations to a hospital.

Chernihiv was besieged in the early stages of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, until April 2022. But was relatively peaceful afterwards up until the missile strike.
