A Russian drone strike on Kharkiv has injured 18 people, including four children, as Ukraine’s second-largest city endures yet another wave of attacks on residential areas.
A Russian drone strike on the northeastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv injured 18 people, including four children, according to Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko on Thursday (June 5).
Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov reported that seven apartment buildings were damaged in the overnight attack, with two sustaining direct hits.
“We were asleep when the first explosion went off,” said local resident Anastasiia Meleshchenko, who lives near the affected building. “We rushed out into the hallway, and that’s when the second drone struck our apartment building.” She added that the ceiling began to collapse moments after the blast.
Meleshchenko also noted the cruel timing of the strike: “Just yesterday, repair workers had finished fixing my flat from the previous attack.”
Outside, emergency workers assessed the scene as burnt-out vehicles lined the street and debris lay scattered across the area.
