The Ukrainian Air Force said the Russian forces launched 13
Shahed drones targeting the regions in the northeast and centre
of the country. The air defense units downed all the drones, the
air force commander said.
However, debris from the downed drones struck civilian targets
in Kharkiv in the northeast, injuring four people and sparking a
fire in an office building, the regional governor said.
Oleh Synehubov, writing on the Telegram messaging app, said a
13-year-old child and a woman were being treated in hospital.
Two other women were treated on site. Emergency services were
bringing the fire under control, he added.
In the industrial Dnipropetrovsk region, two people were
wounded, said Serhiy Lysak, the regional governor. He said a
critical infrastructure facility and three houses were damaged.
