Attack on Kharkiv
The Russian occupying army attacked Kharkiv on January 11, hitting an infrastructure facility in the Slobidsky district. The city mayor Igor Terekhov confirmed information about the drone hit, noting that the strike was carried out by a drone of the type 'Molniya'. All relevant services are working at the scene.
The first explosion in Kharkiv occurred around 12:45. This attack followed previous strikes by Russian troops that took place earlier in January:
- On January 1, Russian troops struck a residential building in Kharkiv, resulting in casualties and significant destruction.
- On January 2, the RF army also carried out a strike in downtown Kharkiv, confirming the escalation of the situation in the region.
The city mayor emphasized the seriousness of the situation, pointing to the consequences of attacks on civilian infrastructure. The situation in Kharkiv remains tense, and local services continue to work on eliminating the aftermath of enemy shelling.
These events indicate the ongoing aggression of Russian troops in Ukraine, particularly in the Kharkiv region, where shelling of civilian facilities is becoming increasingly frequent.
The strike on infrastructure causes serious harm to the lives of local residents and complicates the provision of humanitarian assistance. Amid the escalation of the conflict, local authorities continue to work on ensuring safety and restoring infrastructure, however, the situation remains complex and unpredictable.
