Dozens injured in Ukraine’s Kharkiv by overnight Russian strike
At least 25 people were injured in a residential neighbourhood of the north-eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv in a Russian strike which targeted the city overnight, authorities said on Friday morning.
The entrance of a multi-storey residential building has been partially destroyed, the military governor of the region, Oleh Syniehubov, wrote on Telegram.

Thirty residents were evacuated overnight due to the risk of the building collapsing, he added.
Nearby buildings, vehicles and the entrance to an underground train station were also damaged.
Russia again used powerful guided bombs to attack Ukraine’s second largest city, with further damages to buildings, businesses, vehicles and another train station recorded in another centrally located neighbourhood.
Kharkiv is located close to the Russian border and has come repeatedly under airstrike attack since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022.
