A woman was killed in the village of Vodiane, Kharkiv Oblast, as a result of Russian strikes on Feb. 10, emergency services reported on Feb. 11. Her body was found buried under rubble. A local man was also injured in the attacks.

According to Kharkiv Oblast Governor Oleh Syniehubov, the woman was 56 years old.

Syniehubov said that Russian forces attacked Vodiane, a village south of Kharkiv city, with precision-guided munitions.
