Russian strike on Kharkiv raises death toll to five as two more bodies found

Search and rescue operations are ongoing in Kharkiv following a massive attack by Russian invaders on the night of June 7, which marked the heaviest assault on the city since the start of the full-scale war.

Earlier reports indicated that three people were killed and 22 others, including two children aged one and a half months and 14 years, were injured.

Russian troops launched the attack using 53 UAVs, four guided aerial bombs, and a missile. More than 50 explosions were heard across the city.

One of the drones struck a nine-story residential building in the Osnovyanskyi district, igniting fires on the top floors.

Additionally, several drones targeted an enterprise in the Kyivskyi district, setting a fire that spread across an area of 10,000 square meters. Another drone hit a private residential sector.
