Aftermath of Chuhuiv (Kharkiv region) strike: Nova Poshta hit, rescuers clear rubble

"In the evening of July 4, the enemy carried out a massive attack on Ukraine. As a result of drone strikes, Nova Poshta branch No. 1 in the city of Chuhuiv was damaged. The branch is currently operating in a limited mode: only pickup from the ramp is available, with no customer access to the premises due to significant structural damage," the company stated.

It was also reported that no employees or customers were injured, as the branch was closed at the time of the strike. All parcels remained intact. Shipments addressed to this branch are being redirected to branch No. 2.

Debris removal, assessment of the building’s condition, and urgent reinforcement work are ongoing at the site. If it is safe to provide services inside, the branch will resume full operation shortly. If necessary, a mobile branch will be deployed nearby.

"There will be no delivery delays. We are already contacting customers and providing all necessary information," Nova Poshta added.

Later, the State Emergency Service showed photos of the aftermath of the enemy shelling. It is known that explosions caused fires, which rescuers extinguished within a few hours. Residential houses and passenger cars were damaged.

It was also reported that part of Chuhuiv was left without electricity due to the shelling, and restoration work is already underway.
