This was reported by the mayor of Kharkiv Ihor Terekhov and the head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration Oleh Syniehubov.

In Kharkiv, in the morning, in one of the micro-districts, the building of the Swiss Foundation for Mine Action FSD, which is engaged in demining in the region, was damaged by the impact of an "Iskander-M" ballistic missile. The building was heavily damaged. Nearby cars were also damaged. No casualties were reported.

Then there were two more strikes on infrastructural facilities, one of which caused a severe fire. Another strike by the S-300 missile was on the private sector — houses were damaged. Terekhov initially reported one dead person, but later denied this information.

The fifth strike was on an infrastructure object in the Kholodnohirsky district of the city — two rockets hit it. Six people were injured and have already been hospitalized.
