Around three oʼclock in the morning, the Russians shelled the Slobidsky district of Kharkiv. Three S-300 missiles hit the central building of the vocational school — it completely burned down. The Ukrainian side has started the procedure of returning the bodies of the dead servicemen who were held in the Olenivska colony. Human rights commissioner Dmytro Lubinets has already sent a corresponding request. Before the start of the heating season, the government will evacuate the entire population of the controlled Donetsk oblast, as there is absolutely no gas supply and no proper electricity supply there.
