According to law enforcement reports, participants of the party were taken to the police department, and administrative protocols were drawn up for minor hooliganism and blatant disobedience to the lawful demand of a police officer. The offenders face a fine or up to 15 days of administrative arrest. A probe has been launched into the party held on the Day of Mourning. It is worth noting that Russia struck a residential multi-storey building in Kyiv on July 31. The dismantling of the rubble in the Svyatoshyn district, where the rocket hit, lasted more than a day. As a result of the attack, 31 people died, and the building was completely destroyed. Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko commented on the strike on the multi-storey building, considering it a direct hit. Additionally, it was mentioned that a correspondent from Novyny.LIVE visited the site and prepared a photo report on the consequences of the Russian strike. During the Day of Mourning for those killed by Russian aggression, over 30 individuals were detained for public disorder at a party in a club in Kyiv.
