Ukraine’s northeastern Kharkiv region and its main Kharkiv city are “under attack of enemy rockets,” the regional military chief said in a Telegram post Thursday.
Oleh Syniehubov, head of the Kharkiv regional military administration said four rockets had hit the city — likely S300s.
“Critical infrastructure is the target,” he said.
Search and rescue efforts were ongoing, he added, saying “the danger has not passed yet” and urging residents to stay in shelters.
Kharkiv’s mayor earlier said a series of explosions had been heard.
Russia captured swathes of Kharkiv in the early days of its invasion, before Ukrainian forces retook most of the bordering region in an offensive in the fall.
