A Russian attack on Kharkiv Oblast injured a 70-year-old man, the National Police in Kharkiv Oblast reported on April 3.

The attack hit the village of Kupiansk-Vuzlovyi, a small settlement in the region's Kupiansk district that was liberated during Ukraine's 2022 counteroffensive.

According to the police report, Russian forces attacked the village at 11:00 a.m. local time. The man was reportedly hospitalized.

Settlements in Ukraine’s Kharkiv Oblast are subjected to near-daily attacks by Russian forces due to their proximity to the border with Russia.

Russian forces attacked the village of Novoosynove in Kharkiv Oblast the day prior, killing a man and injuring an 11-year-old boy.
