Dozens Injured, Including Children, in Two Waves of Russian Drone Strikes on Kharkiv

Russia launched two waves of drone attacks on the northeastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv on Monday morning, injuring at least 27 people, including four children, and damaging residential buildings and civil infrastructure, Ukrainian officials said.
The regional governor, Oleh Syniehubov, said the first strikes hit the Shevchenkivskyi and Slobidskyi districts around dawn, injuring 27 people. "One child is in serious condition," Syniehubov stated, adding that apartment buildings and a kindergarten were damaged.
A second series of strikes using at least six Shahed-type drones hit the city's Kholodnohirskyi district several hours later, according to Mayor Ihor Terekhov. "The strikes hit residential streets, cars, and people," Terekhov wrote on the Telegram messaging app, confirming that at least two people were in serious condition following this attack.
The Ukrainian military reported that the building of the Kharkiv regional military recruitment center was among the sites hit.
The attacks damaged numerous homes, set cars ablaze, and downed trolleybus lines, disrupting the city's transport infrastructure.
