A Russian artillery strike on Vovchansk in Kharkiv Oblast injured a 64-year-old man, the General Prosecutor's Office reported on Sept. 26.

The civilian was hospitalized following the strike, the prosecutors said.

Houses, farm buildings, and a car were damaged in the shelling, according to the report.

The town of Vovchansk with a pre-war population of around 17,500 people lies roughly 70 kilometers northeast of the regional center of Kharkiv and less than five kilometers south of the Russian border.

The settlement suffers regular attacks by Russian forces.

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?
