New footage released from inside Kharkiv mall during Russian attack
Police have released a video captured inside the Epicenter mall in Kharkiv during a Russian aerial bomb attack on the shopping center on May 25.
The footage, posted by Serhiy Bolvinov, head of the Investigation Department of the National Police in Kharkiv Oblast, reveals the harrowing moments just before the attack occurred.
The surveillance camera footage shows six individuals in civilian clothes inside a section of the mall moments before the devastation.
It is estimated that over 200 people were present in the Epicenter at the time of the attack. The prosecutor's office is working to confirm the exact number of individuals in the mall by reviewing video footage.
At least 14 people were killed as a result of the attack, which struck the mall on the afternoon of Saturday, May 25.
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.
