On the night of Tuesday, October 29, the Russian occupiers launched another shelling of Kharkiv, hitting residential buildings in the city's Osnovyansk district. As a result of this strike, four civilians were killed - two women and two men, Oleg Sinegubov, the head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, reported in Telegram.
According to Synegubov, the shelling took place around 03:00 at night, when an enemy shell hit private houses in the Osnovyansk district. As a result of the attack, one of the houses was completely destroyed, and two others were seriously damaged. After the shelling, a fire broke out in one of the houses.
A search and rescue operation began immediately after the attack. Employees of the State Emergency Service were sorting through the debris, trying to find survivors among the debris. As of 03:47, the death of three people was confirmed, but later the number of victims increased to four.
"Unfortunately, as a result of an enemy attack on residential buildings, four people were killed - two women and two men," Sinegubov added. Currently, local services continue to work at the scene of the tragedy, recording the extent of the destruction and providing assistance to the victims.
This shelling is another evidence of constant attacks on residential areas of Kharkiv, as a result of which local residents continue to suffer. Despite the efforts of the military administration and rescuers, it becomes more and more difficult to restore peace and security in the city every time.
Today's strike leaves behind not only ruins and destroyed homes, but also pain and grief for the dead. Residents of Kharkiv once again found themselves face to face with the brutal reality of war, which ruthlessly takes lives and destroys their future.
