Russian double missile strike sparks massive fire in Kharkiv, wounding one
Nation11 November, 10:09 AM
One of the incoming missiles detonated on the grounds of a civilian garage cooperative in the Saltivskyi district. The impact sparked fire across 38 individual garage stalls and 15 private passenger vehicles, scorching an aggregate area exceeding 900 square meters (approx. 9,700 square feet).
In addition to the garage complex, the blast wave and shrapnel inflicted structural damage on nearby multi-story residential towers, street-parked civilian cars, and municipal outbuildings, emergency rescue crews confirmed.
Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov earlier reported that Russian forces launched a paired missile attack targeting both the Industrialnyi and Saltivskyi districts.
The missile bombardment followed an earlier aerial strike late on Nov. 10, when Russian forces attacked the city's Kholodnohirskyi district with a Shahed loitering munition. The drone strike ignited a private home, wounding four civilians.
