Message-bearing drone strikes Kharkiv amidst Russia's intensified assault
One of the drones Russia launched in its mass drone attack on Kharkiv bore the inscription "For Crocus City Hall," the Kharkiv Regional Prosecutor's Office reported on Telegram on April 4.
"It's treacherous and cynical to strike with drones at peaceful residential neighborhoods in the dead of night," the statement said. "Targeting the State Emergency Service workers who bravely and selflessly risk their lives every day to save each one of us."
Despite not sharing any evidence to support its spurious accusations, Russia continues to push its false narrative that Ukraine was involved in the Crocus City Hall terror attack carried out by ISIS terrorists.
Russian troops attacked Kharkiv with Shahed drones overnight on April 4. Mayor Ihor Terekhov reported that one of the drones struck a 14-story building, killing four and injuring 12 people, and destroying several apartments.
Three rescuers were killed during a rescue after a second wave of drones struck.
Russia launched the attack on Ukraine using 20 Shahed-136/131 attack drones. Ukrainian air defense systems successfully downed 11 drones.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
