The Russian army carried out a massive strike on Ukraine's Kharkiv on January 25, hitting several districts of the city, according to the Kharkiv Regional State Emergency Service.
One of the strikes hit the roof of a private residential house in the Nemyshlianskyi district of the city. Another impact struck the wall of the 10th floor of a 12-story apartment building in the Kyivskyi district.
Rescue workers inspected the damaged homes. No fires were reported.
One civilian was injured—a 79-year-old woman who was taken to the hospital with wounds. Emergency Service psychologists and demining specialists were also working at the scene.
Earlier today, Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov reported that the Russians had struck a shopping mall in the city with a drone, but later clarified that the impact had actually hit a high-rise residential building.
