For ethical reasons, Terekhov did not name the number of dead and wounded among the civilian population:

Many civilians have died. There are wounded among the civilian population. And among the military, of course, too. We provide medical care to all wounded citizens. Doctors work around the clock. There are still enough beds. We provide medicines to our medical institutions
