The Russians shell almost every day the settlements of the Kharkiv region, in particular the village of Velikiy Burluk. In mid-February, five people died there due to a Russian missile strike.
• A month ago, mandatory evacuation was introduced in two communities of the Kupyansk area. Families with children from Kindrashivka and Kurylivka communities are called to evacuate.
