An apartment is on fire on Mykoly Zakrevskoho Street in Kyiv.
An apartment is on fire on Mykoly Zakrevskoho Street in Kyiv. A woman died as a result of the incident. This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to the State Emergency Service.

A 77-year-old woman was burned alive.

"A fire occurred on Mykoly Zakrevskoho Street 77, on the eighth floor. There was an old woman. Rescuers were sent to the scene, a ladder was immediately installed in order to save her. Firefighters tried to persuade the woman to climb the ladder, but she did not want to, she was in inadequate and shocked condition, she pushed the rescuer away," the report reads.

It is noted that the apartment has a lot of garbage. Rescuers also have no information on whether other people were in the apartment during the fire.

As we reported earlier, an explosion of a residential building occurred in Kyiv's Poznyaky area.

According to Kyiv Mayor Vitaly Klitschko, it was caused by human negligence.

"In my opinion, I can say in advance that this is human negligence, because such explosions occur sometimes, not only in the city of Kyiv, but also in other cities of Ukraine, and also abroad, and this is a human factor," Klitschko said.

I’d say by the time they got that ladder up to her in the second video she had to have been well done. At that point if she was cognizant at all it was probably a choice not to live the next however much longer with the injuries she had suffered.

Indeed a shitty way to go out

Sad. If this happened to my mom or dad I'd be out for the count

How unbelievably horrific

It looks like the fireman backed off a bit due to the intensity

The truckee could have been a little more aggressive getting up that ladder. The temperature inside her skull had to be really elevated from the radiant heat alone. As much as I want to condemn the firefighter aka truckee for not getting up there faster and getting her on that ladder, she was done before it started. Probably for the best. Any rescue would have prolonged her suffering. Her skin had to be just melting off her body before he even got on the ladder. If they put elevated master streams on their truck companies like their American counterparts, they could have made a difference with just tank water blasting into the apartment. Wouldn't even have to catch a hydrant. But it is what it is. Maybe their fire service will learn some valuable lessons from this, like having their firefighters packed out and on air going into a situation like that. Even if he did get close enough to grab her, the radiant heat would have given him 3red degree burns to the exposed skin on his face without the protection of an air pack.


You know its fucking hot when your victim reaches her ignition temperature and bursts into flames before you get up the fly section of the ladder.

The only thing worse than the construction of their fire trucks I'd the construction of their cameras. I wondered what was being blurred out then realized it was just a whole section of pixels that just crapped out. The first video, with all its working pixels, was filmed in 18p. Their porn videos must suck there too.

Trapped in burning buildings is the hardest thing to watch for me, rather watch a decapitation, or dismembering...shitty way to go..
