Russia attacked the Kyivskyi municipal district of Kharkiv at 6:30 a.m. local time on May 14 with UMPB D-30 bombs, causing damage in the city, Governor Oleh Syniehubov reported.
As Russian forces launched new offensive operations in the north of Kharkiv Oblast on May 10, both Kharkiv and a number of border settlements have come under heavy strikes.
Two people – a 52-year-old man and a 66-year-old woman – suffered shock and were treated on the spot, the governor said.
Later during the day, Syniehubov reported that two women aged 56 and 38 were injured but did not specify the nature of their injuries or their condition.
Three garages were reportedly destroyed, and three more were damaged. Another projectile hit an open area.
Further consequences of the attack are being determined.
