A woman was killed and 10 people were injured in a Russian guided-bomb strike on Kharkiv on Sunday 11 October, according to city mayor Ihor Terekhov, whose statements were reported by Ukrainska Pravda. The mayor said the attack hit a residential part of the city's Nemishlianskyi district. The casualty figures are from his latest update and have not been independently corroborated in the material provided to ECTV.
Terekhov said a 35-year-old woman was rescued from the rubble of a damaged building but later died from her injuries despite medical treatment. The report does not establish the identities of other people who were hurt, and no private individuals are named in this article.
The mayor initially reported three people injured. In a subsequent statement at 15:17, he raised the figure to 10. That later number is the one used in this report. The initial lower count is included only to explain the sequence of official updates, not as a separate casualty total.
Ukrainska Pravda said the strike hit near a vehicle-service site and private homes in Nemishlianskyi district. Terekhov initially reported that two houses were destroyed and approximately 15 others damaged by the blast. His later account referred to damage to 35 homes and eight vehicles.
Fire broke out at the site after the attack, according to the mayor, and several cars were reported burning. The material supplied to ECTV does not establish when the fire was extinguished, how many emergency workers attended, or whether residents were evacuated.
The city authorities attributed the attack to Russian forces using guided aerial bombs. ECTV has only the Ukrainska Pravda report relaying the mayor's statements for this incident, so the reported weapons, attribution and casualty numbers are explicitly identified as his claims. No response from Russian authorities regarding this specific strike is included.
The mayor's successive reports show how initial information from an attack site can change as emergency workers and local officials assess injuries and damage. The available reporting does not provide a final damage estimate or the duration of recovery work.
