Russian forces launched two attacks on the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv within a few hours with Iranian-made “Shaid” unmanned aerial vehicles. The death toll is constantly changing: At least 28 people were injured, including two children. Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov announced that “Many residential buildings in the center of the city were hit and a fire broke out.” The city’s water mains were destroyed, a gas pipeline, a kindergarten and a hospital were damaged, as well as 13 apartment buildings.
The attacks by Russian forces are in response to Ukraine’s attack on the border town of Belogorod. Russia immediately announced its revenge. Andrei Turchak, general secretary of the United Russia party, a political formation affiliated with Russian President Vladimir Putin, said: “The bombing of Belgorod is a terrorist attack that will not go unpunished, United Russia will provide assistance to the local population.” .
