Shelling of Kharkiv

Since last month, Russian forces have intensified attacks on Kharkiv and the surrounding region. The occupiers primarily bombard the city using missiles, drones, and air bombs.

Today, Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov reported another shelling of the regional center. This time, the occupiers used KABs (guided aerial bombs).

More details about the shelling and its consequences can be found in the RBC-Ukraine report.
