Nine were injured in Kharkiv overnight on May 30 amid a Russian drone attack on the city, local authorities reported.
“Specialized services are heading to the scene of the incidents,” Kharkiv Oblast Governor Oleh Syniehubov said in a Telegram post.
Two 16-year-olds were injured, Syniehubov said, adding that residential buildings have been damaged in the drone attack.
Kharkiv Oblast in Ukraine’s northeast is a regular target of Russian missile, drone, and glide bomb attacks from across the border or Russian-occupied territories.
Russia has regularly targeted civilian infrastructure in aerial attacks against Ukraine since the start of its full-scale invasion in February 2022.
