In a video released by the State Service of Ukraine for Emergencies on Wednesday, firefighters are seen digging a cat out from a building's rubble in Kharkiv after a reported missile strike.

According to the Facebook post, rescue crews passed that cat to "a caring woman who promised to look after him."

Russian forces have been attacking the city for days, according to CNN.

CNN reported that they've destroyed more than 600 residential buildings since the attack began.
