Khromov said the destruction of at least one archive in Chernihiv region, in particular, the archival unit of the SBU, has burned down.
"We also know that at least several buildings were damaged, in particular in Kharkiv, but as of today, the documents have survived. But we do not know what is happening with some departments of regional state administrations in the temporarily occupied territories.
