The Kyiv office of the newspaper Gordon was damaged in the Russian strike on 23 October, chief editor Alesya Batsman reported in a Facebook post, elaborating in a comment to Institute of Mass Information journalist Valentyna Troyan.

“I’m going to reply to everyone who is worried and texted me in private here. Friends, everything is fine, thank God, there was no one in the office, so no one was injured. The windows were broken and that’s it. Here is the aftermath of the damned Russian Shahed hitting the Gordon office,” wrote Alesya Batsman.

In a comment to IMI, she clarified that the office is unfit for use now because there are no windows and it is cold.

“The windows were broken. Some of the frames were ripped out, some were blasted out along with the glass. Inside, the damage is minimal, paintings, photos fell from the walls, the plaster flaked off, some wall tiles cracked. You can not work in the now-windowless rooms, because it is cold,” said Gordon chief editor.

As reported earlier, the apartment of Channel 5 cameraman Oleksandr Pronskyi was damaged in the Russian combined strike on Dnipro city in the morning of 20 September 2025.
