Russia launched an attack on the city of Kharkiv on March 2, injuring eight people, Mayor Ihor Terekhov reported.
According to Terekhov, among the injured there is a seven-year-old child.
Following the drone strike, three houses were damaged, and close to 150 windows were shattered.
Also, a fire broke out in a high-rise building, and was later extinguished.
Emergency services and volunteers are currently working at the scene.
Kharkiv Oblast in Ukraine's northeast is a regular target of Russian missile, drone, and glide bomb attacks from across the border.
Kharkiv is located less than 30 miles from the Russian border.

Independent journalism needs a community —
not a paywall.
We’re working hard to show the world the truth of Russia’s brutal war — and we’re keeping it free for everyone, because reliable information should be available to all.
Our goal: reach 20,000 members to prove independent journalism can survive without paywalls, billionaires, or compromise. Will you help us do it?
