Kharkiv and its suburbs under attack by Russian drones
In Kharkiv and the suburbs of the capital of Ukraine, witnesses reported a series of powerful explosions on the night of May 26. It is reported that the city suffered a massive attack by Russian strike drones. According to the head of the Kharkiv Regional State Administration, Oleg Synegubov, and Suspilne, enemy UAVs attacked both the city itself and its outskirts.
According to the latest reports, loud explosions were recorded in several districts of the city. Information about possible casualties and damages has not yet been specified. Currently, the threat of further attacks remains quite serious, so the regional leader urged residents to stay in shelters until the official signal for the end of the air alarm.
At least 11 explosions were heard in Kharkiv.
At the same Time, on the night of May 25, the city of Konotop became the target of the most massive strikes since World War II. The mayor of the city, Artem Semenikhin, reported that the attack led to the destruction of an already damaged infrastructure facility in one of the districts, including the destruction of trees.
Despite this, there were no specific reports of damage to housing, although power supply was partially cut off in some streets. However, quick repair work is expected, and the situation is likely to return to normal within the next few hours.
All this is happening against the backdrop of a tense situation in eastern Ukraine, as Russian forces continue provocations and aggression against Ukrainian cities and residents.
