Attack on Kharkiv

At night, Russian troops struck Kharkiv. According to preliminary data, there were three hits with S-300 missiles. A man was injured as a result of the attack. One of the infrastructure facilities was also damaged.

Have Russians already started their "big offensive"?

The Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council, Oleksiy Danilov, said that the occupiers have already launched their "big offensive" but are having "big problems" with it.

"We see now that they (the Russians - ed.) have planned and launched their offensive, but they just don't say that they have started it. And our troops are repelling it powerfully. The offensive that they planned is already gradually underway. But it is not the offensive they were counting on," Danilov stated.
