In a terrifying display of military might, Russia has launched another devastating attack on the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv. The evening of June 7 saw guided aerial bombs being dropped on the city, killing one woman and injuring at least 18 people.
This is not an isolated incident. Just the night before, Russian forces had already carried out a series of deadly strikes against Kharkiv, targeting civilian areas and leaving at least three people dead and 19 injured. The attacks included drones, missiles, and guided bombs, causing widespread destruction and chaos.
