Ukrainian authorities reported Russian strikes on residential districts of Kharkiv, with injuries and damage to homes, according to NV.ua and Ukrinform.
Mayor Ihor Terekhov said missiles struck the Nemyshlianskyi district and damaged buildings, including shattered windows in nearby housing.
Regional governor Oleh Syniehubov said several residents suffered acute stress reactions. Children were reported among those affected, but their identities are not included.
Additional Russian attacks were reported against other parts of Kharkiv, including a market in a different district. Casualties from separate strikes and dates should not be added together unless Ukrainian officials provide a citywide total.
Ukrinform and Kyiv Post reported higher citywide injury figures from the latest attacks. The supplied material does not resolve precisely which injury count applies to each of the individual strikes.
Emergency services continued assessing building damage and providing assistance to residents. The precise weapon type and number of impacts were reported by Ukrainian officials and remain attributed to them.
The strike locations were within Kharkiv, but separate attack reports describe different districts and time periods. No single combined death toll has been independently confirmed by the available sources.
