• On the night of April 4, Russia launched a massive drone attack on Kharkiv. This is the third night in a row that the Russians have launched a massive attack on the city.
• In recent weeks, the Russian Federation has changed its tactics. Attack drones flew in groups and carried out combined strikes on residential areas, critical infrastructure, and business facilities. And when rescue services arrived on the scene, the Russians attacked a second time.
