Russian troops intensified shelling of the Kharkiv region in the northern direction — all night against May 10, shelling from rocket salvo fire systems and artillery continued, and there were numerous strikes by guided aerial bombs. There were also unsuccessful attempts by sabotage groups to break through the state border.
This was reported by the head of the Kharkiv regional state administration Oleh Synyehubov.
"The Armed Forces of Ukraine confidently hold their positions: not a single meter has been lost. The enemy group does not pose a threat to Kharkiv, its forces are sufficient only for provocations in the northern direction. All authorities are working, are on the ground and fulfill their duties," he said.
The head of the Regional Military Administration called on the residents of the border settlements to stay in shelters, because the enemy is firing indiscriminately.
- Officially, the authorities of the Kharkiv region reported that on the night of May 10 and in the morning, Russian troops hit Kharkiv with an S-300 missile (an 11-year-old child and a 72-year-old woman were injured), shelled 21 settlements (Petropavlivka, Stepova Novoselivka, Berestove, Vesele, Vovchansk, Vovchanski Khutory, Lyptsi and others) and hit the city of Derhachi with a KAB (almost 25 buildings and 33 trade pavilions were damaged).
