Russia carried out a missile attack against the village of Velykyi Burluk in Kharkiv Oblast, hitting two residential buildings and injuring at least seven people, said Governor Oleh Syniehubov.

Russian forces attacked at 4:16 p.m. local time, most likely using S-300 anti-air missiles, the governor said. Three people were hospitalized, two of whom were rescued from the rubble of the damaged building.

According to the governor, other people remain trapped under the rubble.

Velykyi Burluk lies around 80 kilometers east of Kharkiv and over 20 kilometers west of the Russian border.

The village was temporarily occupied by Russian forces in 2022 until its liberation in Ukraine's surprise counteroffensive in the autumn of that year.

Сeasefire would leave 25% of Ukraine under Russian control, ambassador says.

"Many countries have proposed the idea of a ceasefire, but no one thinks about what it means. Some 25% of Ukrainian territory would remain under Russian control, which means buying time for Russia to strengthen its capabilities and resume its attacks on Ukraine," Ambassador of Ukraine to Turkey Vasyl Bodnar said.
