Investigation launched into death at Burning Man, with thousands still stranded in Nevada desert after flooding_我的网站

一 |     Kyiv, Oct 10 (UNI) Ukraine cities came under Russian missile attack on Monday as the war entered 229th day, the country's military chief said 75 missiles have so far been fired in the sudden wave of attacks.

General Valerii Zaluzhnyi tweeted that 41 of those were neutralised by air defences.

The BBC report said the information could not be verified, but reporters on the ground witnessed and heard several strikes in Kyiv on Monday morning, with reports of many further explosions from other cities around the country.

Monday morning's rare blasts in the capital here followed further strikes overnight in the southern city of Zaporizhzhia and in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

"A multi-storey residential building was destroyed again. There are victims," posted Zaporizhzhia regional governor Oleksandr Starukh on the Telegram messaging app at around 3 am local time.

Emergency services attended the scene, he added. Zaporizhzhia has been hit repeatedly in recent weeks, with dozens of people killed, the BBc added.

It also followed a "night of massive attacks" in Dnipropetrovsk, according to an update from the region's own governor Valentyn Reznichenko, who accuses Russia of shelling multiple regions.

The Russian air attacks on Kyiv are not over and people must remain under cover, the head of the capital's regional military administration said.

In a message to residents on Telegram, Oleksiy Kuleba reassured them air defence systems were working, but emphasised "that the air alert is still ongoing".

He also called on people not to photograph or film landing sites of missiles or damaged infrastructure in the capital. "People's lives depend on it," he added.

The BBC quoted Mykhailo Podolyak, an adviser to President Volodymyr Zelensky, as saying that "deliberate attacks" on the centre of Kyiv, as well as strikes on Zaporizhzhia in the south and Dnipro in central Ukraine are more proof of the "Kremlin's terrorist inadequacy".

Images and videos on social media showed smoke rising above buildings in several parts of Kyiv.

The first missile attacks on Ukrainian capital after many months on Monday appeared to be much more central than Russian strikes on the city earlier in the war, the BBC said.

Over 10 civilians have been killed and 24 wounded as a result of missile strikes on Kyiv, an aide to the Ukrainian interior minister has said.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said: "They are trying to wipe us off the face of the Earth." Strikes across Ukraine this morning show that Russia is "trying to destroy us and wipe us off the face of the Earth," Zelensky said in his Telegram post. He highlighted blasts in Kyiv, Zaporizhzhia and Dnipro, saying "the air alarm does not subside throughout Ukraine."

"Unfortunately, there are dead and wounded," Zelensky added, before urging his compatriots to stay in shelters.

Russia has not yet commented on this morning's strikes.

Several cars caught fire after the attack in Kyiv and over 15 vehicles were damaged, Rostyslav Smyrnov said in a Facebook post. He added that 30 emergency service workers and six response units attended the scene in Kyiv's Shevchenkivskyy district.

Kyiv Mayor Vitaliy Klitschko said missiles have hit "critical infrastructure" in the city. "The capital is under attack from Russian terrorists!" Klitschko added in his Telegram post.

Parts of the city of Lviv in western Ukraine are without electricity following strikes on key infrastructure, the city's mayor said.

Posting on Twitter, Andriy Sadovyi said explosions had occurred at "a critical infrastructure facility" and that the operation of the city's thermal power plants had been "temporarily suspended".

"Hot water is not provided at the moment," he said. "Standby power generators at several pumping stations were started to restore water supply to the city. Part of the city without electricity."

He also said a third of the city's traffic lights were not working and that, once alerts had been lifted, traffic controllers would be in place at the busiest intersections.

Russian missile strikes in Kharkiv have hit an energy infrastructure site, causing outages to the electricity and water supply in some areas of the city, Kharkiv mayor, Ihor Terekhov, has said.

Three flights of missiles were seen over Kharkiv and "specialists and utility workers are doing everything they can to restore normal life in Kharkiv", Terekhov wrote on Telegram.

Regional head of Kharkiv, Oleg Sinegubov, also confirmed the strikes, posting on Telegram: "The enemy is striking Kharkiv. There are explosions in the city."

For the last couple of hours, there has been constant strike warnings and the sound of explosions around the city, the BBC report added.

The wave of attacks comes two days after the only bridge linking Russia with occupied Crimea was damaged in a blast and Russia's President Putin has been scheduled to chair a meeting of his security council on Monday to discuss the explosion on the Crimean bridge.

UNI ING。    One person died at the Burning Man festival this weekend as a severe bout of rain caused flooding in the remote Nevada desert where the event was being held, authorities said. This comes as tens of thousands of attendees remained stranded Sunday. The Pershing County Sheriff's Office confirmed it is investigating the death in a news release issued Saturday, and said the family has been notified both of the death and the active probe. A spokesperson for the sheriff's office told CBS News on Sunday that the death occurred during the extreme rain that swept through parts of northwestern Nevada on Friday and Saturday, but not because of it. The earlier news release noted that the office "is currently investigating a death which occurred during this rain event." Echoing the release, the spokesperson declined to share additional information about the death or circumstances surrounding it because the sheriff's investigation was still ongoing.

             

The White House said Sunday that President Biden had been briefed on the flooding and "administration officials are monitoring the situation and are in touch with state and local officials."      Officials urged Burning Man attendees to shelter in place on Saturday and Sunday after storms soaked the Black Rock Desert, a dried lake bed now composed of alkali flats that sits in a remote and arid section of northwestern Nevada, about 150 miles from Reno. The Burning Man entrance was shut down Saturday and would remain closed for the remainder of the event, Washoe County Sheriff's Office tweeted. Anyone attempting to travel to the area would be turned around. The Pershing County Sheriff's Office noted Saturday that festival operations were being "halted or significantly delayed...due to unusual weather conditions on the playa."                 Roads in and out of the festival remained closed Sunday evening, and festival organizers urged attendees to conserve food, water and fuel. Cell phone equipment was also brought in to help those stuck in flooded campsites.  

             

About 73,000 people were stranded at Burning Man when the head count was tallied Saturday, the Pershing County Sheriff's Office spokesperson told CBS News. Some attendees were reportedly seen trudging through the muddy desert in efforts to leave the festival on foot, according to the Associated Press.The organizers of Burning Man said in a statement Saturday night that people who decide to walk out of the desert would be provided bus transportation to Reno from Gerlach, which is about 15 miles from the site of Black Rock City. "Burning Man is a community of people who are prepared to support one another. We have come here knowing this is a place where we bring everything we need to survive. It is because of this that we are all well-prepared for a weather event like this," the statement read.                      "We have done table-top drills for events like this. We are engaged full-time on all aspects of safety and looking ahead to our Exodus as our next priority," the statement continued. Exodus is how Burning Man refers to the end of the festival, when all attendees leave the desert."The Burning Man organization's advice is for participants to delay their departures to avoid getting stuck in the mud, but people are free to leave should they choose to do so," organizers said. On the Burning Man website, organizers said they were hoping to reopen roads by 9 a.m. local time Monday. "It was really, really wet and really, really slick," stranded attendee Justin Schuman told CBS News of the muddy conditions in a video interview Sunday from his campsite. "But it's also very alkaline. So you do have to be careful for no prolonged exposure of your skin to the mud because, apparently it can actually start to really, gently burn your skin."Schuman said he and his friends had enough supplies to make it through a few more days. "We are not allowed out of the playa, the gates are locked, we have enough tuna for a week," said Christine Lee, a circus performer, on social media.The area serves as the annual locale for Burning Man, a weeklong event that typically draws tens of thousands of people "to create Black Rock City, a temporary metropolis dedicated to community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance," according to a passage in the "about" section on the festival's website. Event organizers require attendees "to bring all you need to survive" to the desert, including food, water and shelter, which can be shared.                      The Reno Gazette Journal reported Saturday that organizers started rationing ice sales and that all vehicle traffic at the sprawling festival grounds had been stopped, leaving portable toilets unable to be serviced.  

             

The Pershing County Sheriff's Office was coordinating with several agencies, including the Bureau of Land Management and Burning Man Org, to assist attendees sheltering in place at the event site. The sheriff's office spokesperson told CBS News on Sunday that "they are all working together to try to get everybody out of there safely," at least in part using vehicles with four-wheel drive. It was unclear whether other transportation methods were being used too."There had been mild to heavy rain for several hours, causing conditions that made it virtually impossible for motorized vehicles to traverse the playa," the sheriff's office said in Saturday's news release, adding that it supports Burning Man's decision to order attendees to shelter in place and noting, "There is more rain forecast for the next few days which could cause further delays and disruptions for participants attempting to leave the Festival as well as other operations within the Festival." In addition to small groups of people who were able to walk off the event site and were "awaiting transport" arranged by Burning Man at the time the release was issued, the office said "some vehicles have been able to drive off the playa, however, those vehicles have caused damage to the playa surface, and it is not recommended at this time."
