Description
Rescuers clean up the debris after Russians shelled the eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv in strikes where 9 were injured and 1 woman had her foot blown off, according to eyewitnesses. In a video posted on his Telegram channel, Oleg Synegubov, the Kharkiv regional governor, confirmed that the woman, "75 years old, died in a hospital due to the injuries." Oleksiy Konovalov, a serviceman, says he came to the site of the shellings with his tourniquets to find "two people who were unconscious here and I helped them." Yevhen Vasylenko, a spokesperson for the State Emergency Service of Ukraine in the Kharkiv region, claims the attack was made by the Grad long-range Multiple Rocket Launcher System, the first time that form of artillery has been used on Ukraine's second biggest city. Vasylenko claims the rockets hit "near houses, near the garage cooperative, in the yard near the church, and also on children's playgrounds." IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
