The Kulyk family was known for their kindness and community involvement. Friends and neighbors remembered Olena and Maksym for their compassion, regularly preparing meals for the homeless, visiting orphanages, and engaging in charity work.

Rescue operations at the site were completed. Four people were killed, and 14 injured in a Russian missile strike on a civilian building.
