Local authorities say two missiles hit a hardware hypermarket as part of renewed Russian assault on the eastern Ukrainian city.
At least two people have been killed and more than a dozen injured in two separate Russian air raids in Ukraine’s eastern town of Kharkiv, Ukrainian authorities have said, as Moscow steps up its offensive in the northeast.
Two Russian missiles hit a hardware hypermarket with about 200 people believed to be inside in the first attack on Saturday, Oleh Syniehubov, Kharkiv’s regional governor, said on his Telegram channel.
At least 33 were injured, Syniehubov said, adding that the two people killed were store employees, and that a fire caused by the explosion was now under control.
In a separate message on social media, the city’s mayor Ihor Terekhov said four people were missing.
“This attack on Kharkiv is another manifestation of Russian madness,” said Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Zelenskyy, reacting to the news of the attack. He noted that the target was not military infrastructure, but one of the biggest shopping centres in the city.
