Russia attacked Ukraine’s Kharkiv region with missiles on Tuesday. A two-month-old baby died in a hotel. According to official information, the child’s mother was injured.
“Three women, aged 21, 28 and 39, were hospitalized with injuries from explosions and shrapnel, including the mother of the killed child,” the military governor of the Kharkiv region, Oleh Synyehubov, said on his Telegram on Tuesday channel.
“Terrorist attack on civilians”
The three-story building in the Zolochiv settlement, about 20 kilometers from the border with Russia, collapsed as a result of the impact. Synyehubov spoke of “a new terrorist attack on civilians.”
Anti-missiles used for air strikes
The city northwest of Kharkiv is said to have been shelled with recycled S-300 anti-aircraft missiles. Russia regularly uses these missiles to shoot at ground targets in its war of aggression against Ukraine. The Kharkiv region, which borders Russia, is one of the worst affected regions in Ukraine by the war.
Synyehubow reported artillery and mortar attacks on twenty other towns in the area. There were also air raids. The places mentioned by Synjehubov in this context are in the Kupyansk district, where the Russian troops are advancing from the east. The Ukrainian army liberated the strategically important railway junction on the banks of the Oskil River as part of its counter-offensive in autumn 2022. Now Russian forces want to retake Kupyansk.
Drones intercepted over Belgorod
According to the Ministry of Defense in Moscow, Russian forces have intercepted seven Ukrainian drones over the Russian border region of Belgorod. Not a single drone reached its target. Belgorod Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov said there were no injuries or deaths. However, falling debris from the destroyed drones damaged four houses in the town of Gubkin.
Belgorod and other regions on the border with Ukraine are repeatedly shelled by Ukrainian forces. The attacks primarily target Russian military and transport infrastructure.
