Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, has been heavily hit by shelling and rocket attacks during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The city's position about 40 kilometres (25 miles) south of Russia and 160 kilometres (100 miles) north of the separatist eastern regions of Ukraine gives it significant strategic importance.
